Zone 01 · About

Born in Louisville. Moved to Nigeria at ten, and by sixteen I had lived in or traveled through more than ten countries. I came back to the States in 2019, finished high school, and went all-in on technology.

Since then the pattern has not changed: find the hardest system in the room and learn to run it. I finished two EKU degrees in four years while working in the field, and I bring the same wiring to everything I build. I do not leave technical problems unsolved, and I would rather engineer something once, properly, than patch it forever.
