Reconstructed every show I've attended since 2007 from Spotify history, Google Calendar, and purchase records. 178 events. The data tells a life story.

First day as VP of Strategy & Analytics at Lahzo. Day one objective — understand the data flywheel. Long-term objective — build AI systems that make the company smarter faster than any competitor can copy. Let's go.

Built Lil' Mimic Studio so I could turn my kids into cartoon characters. Here they are. Obviously.

Dean has strong opinions about footwear. This is the Chromeo-style disco version of those opinions.

The remix nobody asked for. She approves.

A lullaby. She didn't sleep.

A road trip song for a family that takes road trips to other families.

Every Saturday deserves its own soundtrack.

Dean helps with everything. This song is about that. Obviously it's swing.

An AI-generated bop about Ruby's pink pajama dance parties. Made with Suno. She does actually dance.

Generated a retro-futurist concert poster for a fictional SF show — Deep Dish, Carl Craig, Ray Volpe on the bill. The neon + brutalist combo felt right. Would attend.

Decided to build a proper pipeline for making AI songs for Dean and Ruby. Prompt engineering → Suno → cover art → YouTube. The goal — a personal discography for my kids before they're old enough to be embarrassed by it.

Built this mid-job-search when I realized I was spending more time analyzing job posts than applying. Swipe right if it feels energizing. Left if it feels draining. Simple filter for a complicated decision.

Three weeks mapping every film that influenced Kill Bill and every film it inspired. 200+ nodes, TMDB API, React + Three.js. What started as "I wonder if I can" turned into a proper obsession.

Hit 1,000 AI-generated characters in Lil' Mimic Studio. Started as a weekend project to turn photos of Dean into cartoon characters. Now it has a Tickle Monster game and comic strip generator. The app grows faster than the toddler.

Dean as a sticker. Tongue out, eyes wide, absolutely feral — accurate.

Made a sticker of the fam in the hot tub. This is peak suburban parenting content and I have no regrets.

The closer shot. Same Dad Squad pair — this one ended up as our group chat avatar for a while. AI illustration that actually captured the vibe.

Generated this comic-style playground scene for me and a friend — two dads, two strollers, full Dad Squad energy. The orange beanie is definitely me.

Asked ChatGPT to turn me into a coloring book page. Flannel shirt, beard, slightly skeptical expression — nailed it.

10-episode AI comic series about Dean's greatest hits — IKEA bedtime burrito, firetruck noir, snack negotiation tactics, lego family drama. Every strip: 100% based on real events.

36 hours. 29,029 vertical feet. The equivalent of climbing Everest — on a ski mountain, in laps, on no sleep. Filed under "things that sounded reasonable in January." One of the hardest and most clarifying things I've done.
