Building Technology for Human Quests
A quest isn't easy to master, whether it's achieving a handstand, designing your life, turning aspirations into achievements, or exploring fascinating technologies. For 20 years, I've built products that meet people on their quests and help them get there.
Personal Challenges
Solving problems I've lived
Technical Curiosity
Exploring new possibilities
Quest-Driven
Meeting humans where they are
How I Build
The principles that guide every quest from idea to reality
Start with Real Problems
Every product begins with a problem I've experienced firsthand or a challenge that genuinely fascinates me.
- Build what you need, not what sounds impressive
- If it solves your problem, it likely solves others'
- Personal pain points drive authentic solutions
- Stay connected to the user, because you are one
Embrace Curiosity
Some quests are explorations, testing boundaries of what's possible with emerging technologies.
- Not every project needs a business model
- Technical experiments teach invaluable lessons
- Innovation comes from tinkering and play
- Share discoveries, even the failed ones
Ship and Iterate
Products don't need to be perfect. They need to be real and useful. Launch, learn, and evolve.
- Done is better than perfect
- Users reveal what really matters
- Every version teaches something new
- Keep the feedback loop tight
Want to discuss product ideas or technical challenges?
I'm always curious to hear what quests others are on. Whether you're building something new, solving an interesting problem, or just want to exchange ideas about product development, I'd love to connect.
