In the high-stakes world of regulated AI, your model is only as good as the person who built it. We are betting on a human-first approach to technology.

I got a degree from Douglas College in programming and business management. I understood the business side more and was better at that than at being a coder.

The most dangerous assumption in quality engineering right now is that you can validate an autonomous testing agent the same way you validated a deterministic application. When your systems can reason, adapt, and make decisions on their own, that linear validation model collapses.

Legacy software, often described as 'big balls of mud,' has accumulated over decades, becoming difficult to maintain and understand. These systems rely on extensive teams to function, despite their outdated technology.

"I've never felt this much behind as a programmer. The profession is being dramatically refactored as the bits contributed by the programmer are increasingly sparse and between. I have a sense that I could be 10X more powerful if I just properly string together what has become available over the last ~year and a failure to claim the boost feels decidedly like skill issue."
