Building toward a serious hard-tech company at the intersection of nuclear energy, industrial manufacturing, and frontier systems. Not demos — infrastructure scale.
The obsession is execution at infrastructure scale: regulation, supply chain, QA, cost curves, and capital formation. Not just demos. The world doesn't need another software layer on top of physical reality — it needs people who can actually build and operate the physical layer.
My background — nuclear-qualified submarine officer, computer science, Naval Reactors, government procurement — gives me a specific and unusual vantage point. I've operated systems where failure is not recoverable. I've worked inside the government's most demanding nuclear program. I understand what hard actually means.
"I'm not interested in novelty apps or marginal conveniences. I'm focused on physical technologies that expand what humanity can do and where it can go."
Plan: finish my Navy tour strong, compound leverage — technical depth, credibility, relationships — and build an industrial company that meaningfully advances civilization.
Consistent for the long haul: 11 years in the Navy, 13+ years in the gym without stopping. The next company I build I plan to work on for the next 50+ years. I'm in it for the duration.
