Agentic AI Engineer
BIOS that shipped in millions of PCs → software built with AI coding agents.
I started in low-level engineering, then spent two decades leading production and AV work. Today I bring that mix of technical depth and real-world delivery to AI-assisted software and full-stack products.
I'm studying AI Software Engineering at Maestro College and building public projects that turn ideas into working systems.
4 projects across interface, firmware, product, and portfolio engineering. Each has a closer look inside.
A library of four SolidJS tree components: a basic tree, a virtualized tree for huge datasets, a bring-your-own-database tree, and a batteries-included Supabase tree with automatic multi-user leaf locking. Built for the SolidJS ecosystem using the amazing TanStack Query library.
SolidJS · TanStack Query · TanStack Virtual · Supabase · TypeScript
Turn calibration specs into traceable firmware constants with review gates.
Python · Firmware · Specification workflows
A server-rendered bookstore with PostgreSQL-backed accounts and carts.
Rust · Axum · Askama · HTMX · PostgreSQL
Give AI coding tools a way to inspect JavaScript logs while they work.
JavaScript · MCP · Developer tools
Live demo links will appear after Tim confirms public URLs. Every project has a repository and a case study.
Focused on making technology useful, from low-level systems to modern interfaces.
