Who I am

I'm a self-taught engineer who ships products from zero to scale. I was the sole early developer of Melee.gg, building it into a global esports SaaS used by hundreds of thousands of players before running it for six years as EVP of Product. Today I'm Co-Founder & CTO of NILmetrics, where I architected the scoring engine and data pipeline end to end, and product architect at Occam Systems, an early-stage chemistry-simulation startup. I build AI-native systems: grounded LLM agent pipelines, natural-language-to-SQL with guardrails, and scoring services. Everything else I'm making (AI tools, SaaS prototypes, games) lives under Mythic Works. I build like an engineer and think like a founder, and I care deeply about the difference between software that works and software that matters.
