I'm a software engineer with a grudge against bad tooling.
Now
Software engineer at Blue Cross Blue Shield of Arizona. I work mostly on the public site: lead integrations, navigation and publishing.
Outside work I'm learning Odin, inference and graphics by building the hard parts myself: a Vulkan renderer and an LLM inference server.
