By leveraging state of the art data scraping and feature detection tools, as well as the oft sought after LLMs (ChatGPT, Google Gemini, etc.) I get to support gamers with actionable performance improving insights derived from their gameplay. As the CTO at Omnic.ai I get to create solutions that are novel in their application, easy to manage, and extensible to any other games or visual digital content. What I love most about this opportunity is the ability to create data access APIs for assets that dont have a publisher provided API, and extending those that already exist. 

When cannabis became legal to grow recreationally here in Maine I soon found out that 1) I spent more time worrying about my plants than caring for them and 2) each time I visited my grow chamber I spent more time than I had available by tinkering and fiddling with my plants and systems. My solution to this was to automate the evironment and provide myself with a reporting tool that would tell me when my plants actually needed my attention. This led to the creation of the FARM (Functional Automation and Reporting Module) and my company AIGronomy LLC. 

Building networks of diverse actors that act in harmony is one of my favorite activities. Weather on a virtual battlefield (Starcraft) or digitally enhanced toasters (Dyanmic Grid) allowing adversarial collaboration between autonomous digital agents always presents a challenge. As a mathematician, its about breaking an asset's capabiliteis into the orthogonal basis that defines the state space they act in and have influence over. Then allowing any component to 'have a say' in how and when things get done. This allows for priorities to be met, while also maximizing a bottom line. 

Built on work done by Caryl and Alex Johnson, xGraph is a bi-licensed software project that allows for node.js software modules to be leveraged in any distributed backend or frontend deployment. Reworking this project was such a pleasure and the mode of thinking that it enables for solution developers is a game changer.
