What I Do

I work across trades and technology: locksmithing & knife sharpening; animal care, beekeeping, and homestead skills; plus IT projects like servers, self-hosting, and site setup (including this one). “Jack of all trades” isn’t a downgrade—range helps me solve real problems end-to-end and translate between worlds.

Why a Polymath?

Range makes me useful. I can troubleshoot a lock in the morning, harden a Linux server at noon, and help a stressed animal feel safe in the evening. Being good at many things lets me spot patterns, connect specialists, and deliver results without hand-offs.

Animals & Training

I practice presence-based, trauma-informed handling. I’m experienced with sensitive, working-type dogs and helping animals re-regulate so they can learn. Dante (my service dog in training) is part of that journey.
