Let's build something.

WRITING

I write to figure things out.

Writing is where I slow down. Building forces you to move quickly. Writing forces you to ask: Why?

The question

Author

I've been trying to understand people for a while.

Why do people do what they do?

Those questions eventually became books.

Books

Two books. One obsession.

My writing around psychology started as an attempt to understand the hidden layer behind human interaction — intentions, behaviour, perception and the patterns people reveal without explicitly saying what they mean.

Journal

  • August 2026

    Building this website. Trying to turn years of projects, experiments, conversations and photographs into something that actually tells the story.

  • 2026

    Building Productica's next chapter. Moving from product-market-fit intelligence toward a broader system of specialised AI agents.

  • 2026

    Thinking about AI differently. The interesting question isn't whether AI can answer a question anymore. It's what happens when it can own part of the process.

  • 2025

    More time in communities. More talks. More workshops. More conversations with people building things. And a growing realisation that explaining an idea often teaches you more than building it alone.

  • Earlier

    Building because I wanted to know if I could. That was probably the original reason behind most of this.

Two books. One continuing question:

How much of human behavior can we actually understand?
