Anthropologist → Engineer
Curiosity about how people organize became a career building tools so they can.
I studied cultural anthropology—how communities form, share knowledge, and solve problems together. After traveling through 30+ countries, I started writing software: first for travel startups, then enterprise systems, now my own products.
The thread: technology that helps humans collaborate and build. That's Hazzard (helping local governments prepare for hazards), and 2nd Summit (helping startups build engineering teams).
