Featured work
Things I’m building
Built with Raven, my wife and a psychologist. Practical between-session tools, without the “app-y” feel.
A watch-first match clock for soccer referees: AYSO presets U6–U19, haptic period transitions, auto-armed stoppage.

The night shift
Off the clock
The weekend
The other half of the week — a small Episcopal parish in L.A., a board seat, and a livestream rig that goes live at 10 a.m. sharp.
People’s Warden
Christ the Good Shepherd · Episcopal
Elected by the congregation to represent the laity on the vestry, the parish’s governing board. Less authority than the title suggests and more showing up — which is the part that counts.
Board Member
Good Shepherd Manor · Leimert Park
Good Shepherd Manor is affordable senior housing with long roots in Leimert Park — affiliated with the parish, but its own community under its own roof. I serve on the board: governance, stewardship, and keeping a place that has housed neighbors for decades steady for the ones living there now.
Livestream Producer
Christ the Good Shepherd · Sundays, 10 a.m.
Built the parish’s broadcast stack from scratch — automated thumbnails, bulletin integration, sermon clipping, channel management. It runs every week, mostly hands-free.

American Youth Soccer Organization
