Hi, I'm Alex 👋
I build local AI, dev tools,
and playful software.
I run my own models on my own machines and ship small, sharp experiments — from story-games to market dashboards. This is where they live.
Projects
Two things I keep coming back to — serious tools, and silly toys.
Market Workstation
A valuation dashboard pulling live macro data to model fair value — FastAPI + DuckDB under the hood.
How AI Works
Plain-English explainers on how language models actually think — token by token, no hype.

About
I'm a builder who likes owning the whole stack — including the models. I run several machines with local AI models and a handful of harnesses, partitioned so each does what it's best at.
Most of what I make starts as a "what if I just…" and turns into something real over a weekend. I care about software that feels good to use and doesn't depend on anyone else's servers to stay alive.
Let's talk
Got an idea, a question, or just want to say hi?
