// WRITING
Essays on building, shipping, and living with AI as a one-person studio. Posted on Substack — landing here so you can see them all in one place.
// What I write about
Most of what shows up here is what I'm actually wrestling with that week — orchestration across an agent swarm, the rhythms of running multiple products as a one-person studio, what gets easier (and harder) when AI makes every product buildable.
Some pieces are technical. Some are operational. A few are broader — fitness, health, longevity, and the future of society as AI compounds against it. The throughline is curiosity and honesty about what's actually working.
// How I write
An essay earns its time before it goes up. I'd rather one piece that says something true than a weekly newsletter padded with throat-clearing. Writing is supposed to clarify thinking, not perform it.

Read here ↓Different energy tonight. Five European startups were in NYC to pitch Anna Garcia (Altari Ventures), a fintech B2B-focused fund. This wasn't a demo night. This was a pitch room.
Read here ↓Every demo last night pointed to the same thing: orchestration. Not "AI does tasks" — "AI runs systems."
Read here ↓Field notes from a founder building in AI.
