CIO by day, cybersecurity professor & Forbes Contributor by night, and a firm believer that the best ideas start with good coffee. I’m passionate about using AI, cloud tech, and leveraging system dynamics to make work (and life) a little easier.
Outside of work, I’m either reading/writing in some indie coffee house, hiking shady trails along the river, or adding to my ever-growing collection of houseplants.
I’m always learning, always leading, and always up for a good book or a new coffee house to explore.

Corporate Domino developer, then Rails developer back in the 2010+ era, moved on to IT management.

Apparently I'm older but not wiser.

Now back trying to pick it all up again with side projects, Rails+Mobile. Any view points that appear sensible are copied from others.

I was born too late and in too bad place to live a happy life, but just in time to watch the world begin to burn.

I hike trails, read books, watch movies, spend too much time on social media, serve the golden calf of capitalism as a creative copywriter (and worst of all, I like the job), and dream of becoming a screenwriter.

As a rule, I will spend a long time lurking before I ever share anything meaningful.

I too miss the internet of the before times.

I still have my LiveJournal as I don't believe in dusting.

I prefer to stay on trails so as not to leave footprints on land that deserves to remain untouched.

I will stumble haphazardly in the dark forever before ever turning on the big light.

Act like you mean it.

Neckbeard, but I am unable to grow a beard.

I'm a polish software engineer by trade (and passion) working on #Ruby on Rails in a SASS. But my true heartbeat is the #foss #RetroComputing rhythm: I love my #emacs #freebsd combo. I am very much into #smallweb and all that it stands for.

I love good #SciFi but recently I've been reading good #fantasy - which is a shock to me. There are great fantasy books out there!

Piracy is the only answer to streaming services.

Currently I am learning how to make a game for #commodore64.
