“You have to have an idea of what you’re going to do, but it should be a vague idea.” #

—Pablo Picasso

Some of the vagueness I’ve been part of exploring include Code4rena (sold in 2024), Node Security Platform (what you get when you run npm audit, sold 2018), &yet, ^lift security consulting, Tumbleweird, Tri-Cities Daily, Fuse, Tri-Cities Public Market, Talky, SimpleWebRTC, The Call of the Wildling, MUX, Shippy (née &!), FrontDesk IM, and the events &yetConf, RealtimeConf, Brio, and TriConf. Oh yeah—and the world’s (first and last) immersive musical theatre LARP JavaScript training experience.

I’m a lucky bastard who’s managed to reinvent my life multiple times based on what I’ve learned through huge failure and modest success.

I believe tiny leaders build on other tiny leaders to create tiny powerful fearless societies. And I believe in people who care a lot.
