McKee Outdoors: a fishing tackle shop's website, two years in the making, finished in six days. I directed AI agents that loaded, researched, connected and cleaned the catalog, and left the owner an AI assistant to run the store from his phone.
Live products 513 to 2,483 · Sizes and colors 1,664 to 23,260 · 91% synced to the register · Sep 28 to Oct 3, 2026
Service Impact Detection: an AI network analysis tool that went into production in the NOC. I led the team of nine that built it. We won the 2024 company hackathon with it.
One Time PIN: I built a bare-bones version of the caller verification tool and got it approved. Then I worked with developers and middleware teams to take it to production. It saved over $300K a year.
I ran 50 to 150 major incidents a year on BMC Remedy with paging through PagerDuty. I followed every one through the problem management workflow to root cause and corrective action.
I built Tableau dashboards for MTTR and other incident and problem metrics. Leaders used them to push MTTR down about 20% year over year across IT and Engineering.

I once weighed 495 lb. I lost weight, gained a lot of muscle and now weigh 203 lb. That's where my interest in the health industry and what I call "biohacking" comes from. It's also why I build health and training software.
I've always loved grape-flavored drinks and slushies, and the color purple. My wife came up with the name "grapeslush". Lots of friends now call me Slush, in person too.
