Hey, I'm Thomas.
I grew up in Tampa and live in Austin. Both feel like home now.
My wife Jenny and I met in high school, lost track of each other, and reconnected years later through a mutual friend. We have a French Bulldog named Bru who is a goofy little dog that you can't help but love.
My background is in operations and, more recently, AI. Outside of that, you'll find me running long distances with friends, practicing guitar, or reading.
I write and think about the tension between doing great work and living a quiet, intentional life.
This my permanent home for building, thinking, and documenting a life well-lived.
