Background

Years of craft. Real passion.

It ain't about how hard you hit. It's about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward.

Rocky Balboa — Rocky Balboa (2006)

I have been writing code since I was twelve. Not a late pivot — years of craft, and real passion. Swift first. CodeDay at Lipscomb. Built what people needed, then kept going.

That arc never stopped. When AI became useful, I went deep the same way I go deep on anything that matters. ASU full-stack, 2024. CompTIA Security+. Qualifications I earned — so technical leadership is grounded, not guessed.

This site is about me as CEO & Founder: the story, the qualifications, and the work. Useful software needs an owner who ships, hardens, and stays accountable. I founded AppVantix so that person is me.

I founded AppVantix to invent and operate useful software — with AI and security in the stack. LifeVault.ai is another product I’m shipping: time capsules parents seal today for a day that matters later.

Quotes

Lines that stick.

  1. 01

    Give me a place to stand, and I shall move the earth.

    Archimedes — quoted by Pappus of Alexandria, Synagoge, Book VIII (c. AD 340)

    Leverage over brute force: ship systems that multiply what one person can do.

  2. 02

    Never give in, never give in, never, never, never, never—in nothing, great or small, large or petty—never give in except to convictions of honour and good sense.

    Winston Churchill — Harrow School speech (29 Oct 1941)

    Coding since twelve. ASU. Security+. Keep shipping when the hard parts show up.

  3. 03

    Results! Why, man, I have gotten a lot of results! I know several thousand things that won't work.

    Thomas Edison — recounted by Walter S. Mallory in Edison: His Life and Inventions (1910)

    Persistence with receipts: each failed path narrows the ones that ship.
