I’m an integrator. I help people bring technology into their lives well—where it is genuinely useful, appropriately secure, and understood by the people using it.
I work at the overlap of security, education, and AI. I build frameworks and open-source tools, then teach people how to put them to work. That means choosing integration over capability, implementation over strategy, and evidence over hype.
csAIi is my framework for how people and AI work together:
Context → Skills → Agents → Integration → Iteration
The order matters. Start with what the system needs to know, build repeatable skills, give agents bounded roles, connect the parts, then improve from evidence.
Two open-source methods sit beneath csAIi:
- PAST — Purpose, Audience, Scope, Tone: clarify what an AI initiative is for.
- SHAPE — Situation, Hypothesis, Action, Process, Evaluation: move from intent to disciplined execution.
- mcp-arr connects AI assistants to a working media-management stack.
- mcp-threatintel brings multiple threat-intelligence sources into one usable interface.
- spain-ai-kit connects AI applications to Spanish government data and legal infrastructure.
- the-antislop turns an anti-slop writing principle into a practical editing tool.
Different domains, same job: making separate technologies work together in ways people can use.
I’m a published author and teacher-builder. I wrote How to Think Like a Coder and How to Code in Minecraft—books designed to help people understand technology well enough to use it with confidence.
I publish Signal Over Noise, about getting real value from AI without the hype, and Second Brain Chronicles, where I build my AI-augmented second brain in public. I also teach working professionals how to put AI into practice.
