Software & AI
I’ve been building websites, applications, and online systems since 2010—starting with Drupal, which probably makes me something close to a dinosaur in Drupal years. These days, I’m also using AI to build software for my own businesses, from Kartulex and the Caulingo HR platform to Lease Source and smaller automation tools.
This section brings together those experiences: AI coding adventures, Drupal development, XTRF support, workflow integrations, and the practical lessons that come from maintaining real production systems. I write about what I’m building, what works, what breaks, and what it takes to turn an idea into something useful.
There’s plenty happening behind the scenes, too: Ubuntu servers, Nginx, deployments, caching, SSL, databases, and automation scripts. Whether I’m debugging an older Drupal module or building a new application with AI, the goal is the same—solve a real problem and keep the system running.
