About me

30+ years building and supporting businesses and new ideas.

I’m a bilingual digital strategist, serial entrepreneur, and creative thinker who’s been riding the digital wave since 1994 (yep, back when websites had hit counters and dial-up ruled). I’ve launched a dozen startups, crafted hundreds of projects, and love finding smart, practical ways to make ideas shine—whether through strategy, marketing, design, or making sure everyone feels welcome. I bring a mix of leadership, tech know-how, and a dash of playfulness to everything I do.

Outside the digital world, I’m a proud dad, a partner, an artist, and a serious fan of escape rooms and board games.

Experimenting with Vibe coding

Over the past months, I’ve been diving deep into the world of web app creation and game development, experimenting with no-code and AI-assisted tools that make building online experiences more intuitive than ever. It’s been incredible to see how quickly an idea can go from a simple concept to a fully interactive prototype. Refreshing my knowledge about modern web frameworks, databases, and logic flow has felt less like traditional coding and more like creative problem-solving, a perfect blend of design, storytelling, and technology.

Time Wardens

Time Wardens began as a story I imagined years ago, and seeing it come to life as an online “Choose Your Own Adventure”-style game has been amazing. Players assemble their own team of Time Wardens, make decisions that shape the storyline, and explore a richly detailed steampunk world filled with mystery, time travel, and strategy. Every scene, image, and choice was built using AI-powered tools and custom logic, showing just how far creativity and accessible technology can go together.

Gemnix Terra

Gemnix takes a different approach, an evolving fantasy-world builder where players can explore, gather resources, and shape their own stories in a living, AI-generated universe. The project started as an experiment in world creation but quickly grew into an immersive sandbox experience blending art, music, and interactive storytelling. It’s a glimpse into how the next generation of games and apps will be built: fast, modular, collaborative, and driven by imagination.
