Systems Architect Building Intelligence Infrastructure
Builder → Operator → Architect
20 years real estate
7 years trading systems
4 years AI infrastructure
I design intelligence systems for decisions where mistakes are expensive.
My work is grounded in real capital, real operations, and personal stakes before any market claims.
I didn’t start with abstraction. I earned it through execution.
My background spans physical labor, skilled trades, operations, finance, and systems design.
I’ve built with my hands, managed risk with my own capital, and learned where theory breaks under pressure.
That path shaped how I work today:
I build infrastructure, not hype.
I validate before I explain. I design for durability, not convenience.
I’ve consistently been entrusted with responsibility,
often without seeking it,
because I tend to make complex systems work under real constraints.
Intelligence Infrastructure
Founder of a modular AI publishing platform focused on verification, simulation, and cognitive tooling.
Everything is tested with real stakes before release at:
Capital & Risk Systems
Two decades operating real estate assets, structuring private transactions, and deploying capital under constraint.
Systematic trading design with rule-based execution and psychology integration.
Cross-Domain Architecture
I specialize in translating hard earned operational knowledge into reusable systems,
across finance, technology, and decision making.
I optimize for signal over noise
I prefer small, continuous improvements over rewrites
I design systems that work without me
I validate truth through execution, not consensus
I assume platforms change and design accordingly
Modular intelligence infrastructure spanning verification, simulation, and applied decision systems.
Framework-driven, platform-independent by design.
20 years of ownership and execution.
Includes major adaptive reuse, private lending, and creative financing.
Proprietary rule-based trading framework developed over 7+ years.
Integrated risk management, phase logic, and AI-assisted psychological review.

Incentive Design
I don't build hype-driven tools, optimize for virality, or ship systems I wouldn't trust with my own capital or family.
I’m not interested in short-term wins that erode long-term integrity.
Based in Sarnia, Ontario, Canada
Married for 18 years to Priscilla and father of three.
My work is informed by decades of execution across trades, finance, and systems design, and an unusually high volume of sustained self-directed learning.
I’m open to selective conversations around:
Decision intelligence infrastructure
Trading and execution systems
Fintech and PropTech applications
AI system design under real constraints
