CTO at MemoriesLabs. I grow engineering teams and leaders across Melbourne and Kathmandu.

MemoriesLabs builds Memories, a funeral planning and memorialization platform. I also help Decimal Tech grow its engineering teams in Kathmandu.

I write here about engineering and AI, and about exploring consciousness and meditation. More on the about page.

Three pieces on engineering once code is cheap to produce.

  1. Beyond Clean Code Dogma - Why Your Engineering Team Should Obsess Over the Delivery Trinity Instead

    Obsessing over clean code dogma can actually slow your team down. Here's what to focus on instead.

  2. Code Review in the Age of AI-Generated PRs

    We now generate code faster than we can reliably review it. Practical principles for reviewing AI-generated pull requests without slowing your team down.

  3. From keyboard to thought: what happens to us when the interface disappears?

    We got hooked on social media. AI might hook us even deeper, by doing things for us rather than showing us things. So what happens to human consciousness when the line between us and the machine starts to blur?

  4. My Unexpected Love Affair with Swimming

    How a chance encounter at the pool and a simple breathing technique transformed swimming from a chore into a moving meditation, and took me from 2 laps to 101.
