Home Lab

Where product thinking meets personal tinkering
🤖

Orchestrating AI Agents

n8n Automation LLMs

Building personal AI agents for everything from research assistants to home automation tasks. Because if you can't automate your own life, can you really ship AI products?

🧠

Local LLMs

Ollama LM Studio Privacy-first

Running models on home lab hardware, testing what works to inform professional insights. Cloud platforms are great, but building your own stack hits different.

🏡

Home Automation

Home Assistant IoT Voice Agent

Building the UX my smart home deserves. Currently focused on a local voice assistant that picks music better than I can.

🛠️

Digital Fabrication

3D Printing CAD Rapid Prototyping

Designing and printing functional solutions to problems I didn't know I had. The ultimate in user-driven iteration cycles.

📈

Personal Productivity

Vibe Coding Dev Tools Side Projects

Building micro-tools for workflows that don't exist yet. When the market gap is your own life, the product-market fit is immediate.

Soccer Aficionado

Strategy Team Dynamics Beautiful Game

Applying product thinking to set pieces. Turns out roadmap planning and pressing tactics have surprising overlap.
