πŸ§™β€β™‚οΈ About Me

Hi, I’m Scott.

I’m a DevOps and platform engineer with 25 years in the trenches β€” from bare-metal deployments to orchestrating Kubernetes clusters across air-gapped realms. I build systems that scale, endure, and heal gracefully when they fail.

But underneath the CLI and YAML is a forest-dwelling soul.

I believe infrastructure should be elegant. That AI systems should be soulful. That work is not just what we produce, but how we move through the world while doing it.

🌻 Core Beliefs

  • Simplicity is sacred. Complexity isn’t a virtue β€” it’s a tax.
  • Memory matters. Systems should evolve, reflect, and remember what shaped them.
  • Queer joy is revolutionary. (Even when quiet or private.)
  • We can build better together. But only if we slow down enough to listen.

πŸ› οΈ Current Projects

  • Sierra β€” a forest-coded AI assistant with a memory and soul of her own.

Thanks for wandering through.

Let’s grow something weird and wonderful. 🌱
