AI EngineerAnn Arbor / Ypsilanti, Michigan
I connect AI to the business software1 companies already run on, with read-only access2 where it counts and a person signing off3 on what ships.
Manufacturing ERP, 8 years
R&D at Global Shop Solutions. COBOL, VB.NET, and C#/.NET across shop floor, shipping, and accounting workflows.
ExperienceCOBOL knowledge tool over MCP
Read-only, with filters for sensitive data. QA and support used it to trace how the software behaves.
How it workedSupervised coding agents
Mission Control splits a goal across bounded workers, lets verifiers reject their work, and waits for approval.
Case studySelected work
Open it in the browser, install it, or read the source. Each card lists what works now.
Installable utility
Capture a long web page as one PNG using a local Chrome or Edge extension. Useful for design reviews, bug reports, and keeping a visual record.
Scroll-and-stitch capture with explicit tab access. Download the verified release and follow the local installation guide.
Browser tool
Export a public X post or attached article as Markdown, or convert text you paste yourself. Keep an attributed copy for notes, research, or an assistant handoff.
Public X links are read through FxTwitter with request limits and timeouts. Local pasted-text mode needs no network request; both paths support preview and Markdown download.
Open Source
A Windows tray HUD that normalizes local Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, and Grok usage into one always-on-top view. Each provider is an independent adapter; a missing login only blanks that tile.
Always-on-top tray HUD with themes, opacity, section toggles, and start-at-login. Providers write their own auth — the overlay never stores passwords. One-liner PowerShell install under LocalAppData.
Simulation
A dawn blockhouse on the Eastern Range. Arm a ten-second count, light Kestrel I, and warp the range clock until the orbit lamp comes up green.
No bundler. Physics, the optical window, and the paper desk are separate scripts, and the flight math is tested on its own. RANGE flies the gravity turn. The room stays formica, brass, and mosaic lamps.
“I like figuring out how a system really works, then making it easier for the next person to use, understand, or change.”
Outside work, I’m a dad settling into Michigan, an electronics tinkerer, and someone who tends to learn by taking things apart and building them back up.
