Now

What I'm focused on right now.

A page in the spirit of Derek Sivers' nownownow.com. A snapshot, not a résumé.

Updated May 7, 2026 from Lake Stevens, WA.

Work

  • Langflow, IBM. Core maintainer. Current PR queue: MCP auth resilience, watsonx Orchestrate tests, the Langflow SDK release workflow, and ToolGuard policies.
  • AI Workbench. Building the self-hosted Astra workbench for retrieval-backed applications: knowledge bases, ingest, retrieval experiments, agents, MCP, and runtime operations.
  • Developer and Operator Experience team. Making Langflow easier to run in production and easier to hack on in development — the two usually want different things.

Side projects

  • Aeroza. Open-source weather infrastructure for live radar, geospatial queries, streaming APIs, nowcasting, and forecast verification. Project notes · source.
  • Rewriting this site (done — you are reading it).
  • Occasional pushes to bulletxtrctr and the CSAFE bullet-matching pipeline.
  • OmniacsDAO — Numerai tooling, experiment-builder, letter-loops.

Reading & learning

  • Papers on agent tool-use evaluation and MCP security boundaries.
  • Rust, slowly, for no good reason.

Not doing

  • Conference travel (remote-first for 2026).
  • New consulting engagements — day job at IBM has my full attention.
