I find broken, leaking, or missing pipes on the internet—specifically, the gaps in knowledge between powerful tools and the ambitious people who need to use them. I thrive on untangling complexity and turning it into a clear, repeatable process.
What I Do
I build definitive, battle-tested guides for business owners who refuse to be held hostage by consulting fees and vendor lock-in.
Every playbook you find here is:
✅ Tested in production (not theoretical blog filler)
✅ Step-by-step executable (no hand-waving)
✅ Deeply researched (I read the source code)
✅ Ruthlessly practical (no fluff, no SEO spam)
Why I Built This Garden
This garden is my answer to the frustration of:
Fragmented documentation that assumes you already know the answer
Superficial tutorials that skip the hard parts
Vendor marketing disguised as guides
The endless search for a straight answer
It’s a quiet corner of the internet dedicated to the craft of building robust, independent systems. It is the collection of guides I wish existed when I was stuck.
Who This Is For
I build these playbooks for:
Fellow builders who want to understand, not just copy-paste
Pragmatists who value clarity over cleverness
Business owners who believe in digital sovereignty
Self-hosters tired of $50,000+ consulting bills
If you’re the kind of person who reads the docs and the source code, you’re in the right place.
My Philosophy
Clarity Over Clutter
The best solution to a complex problem isn’t a magic black box—it’s a crystal-clear set of instructions.
One Guide, One Problem
Each playbook is designed to be the only resource you need on that specific topic. No endless rabbit holes of “see also” links.
Trust Through Transparency
I show my work. Every script is commented, every decision is explained, every gotcha is documented.
