Building practical AI systems from a farm in North Carolina.
After twenty years in payments and enterprise software—mostly at Visa, ending as COO and CPO at Fraedom—I traded corporate life for a farm. Now I am building PersekOS and contributing precise, practical fixes to OSS.
🌱 Currently tending PersekOS, upstream bugs, and an actual farm.
- See what I am building: PersekOS, my local home for work that would otherwise disappear into chats, notes, reminders, and browser tabs.
- See what I have shipped: merged open-source contributions across AI, developer tooling, accessibility, reliability, and local-first software.
- Read the unlikely backstory: from corporate systems to a North Carolina farm.
- Compare notes: X is the best place to reach me.
A growing record of fixes I have helped ship upstream—reviewed, accepted, and merged.
