Outside of work, I’m deeply into underground music, music technology, and creative tools — and I spend a lot of time exploring design as a growing (and enthusiastic) graphic designer.

AI (Business Approach)

My approach to AI in business

I’m interested in AI that earns its keep: clearer decisions, faster prep, better follow-through, and less busywork. I’m not chasing hype — I’m building a practical toolkit that supports real outcomes.

• Start with the workflow: where time is lost, where quality drops, where customers feel friction.
• Use AI to reduce noise and raise signal: better targeting, stronger briefs, cleaner recaps.
• Treat AI like a teammate: documented, measurable, and easy to adopt.

Music

Bands + shows

I spent several years playing in local hardcore and screamo bands, self-booking shows across the Midwest from 2008–2011. Music shaped how I collaborate, problem-solve, and build community — and it’s still a major part of my life.

• Hey Nightmare / Visions — Rhythm Guitar (2008–2010) • Hardcore / Emo / Metal
• The Longshot — Rhythm Guitar (2011) • Emo / Indie / Pop Punk
Vinyl

Discogs logoDiscogs + collecting

I curate a growing vinyl collection spanning emo, hardcore, metal, metalcore, deathcore, screamo, indie, hip-hop, and adjacent genres — currently 450+ records.

I catalog everything. Collecting vinyl is how I keep the tangible connection to music — the artwork, inserts, and colors — that’s often lost in a digital world.
