Case Records
// CASE RECORDS
A case record is how I run work: one problem, one owner, staged from build through adoption to scale. Every case names its measures up front and reports against them honestly — a target stays labeled a target until it has been measured. Two registers below: the delivery systems I run in production, and the strongest entries from my studio’s record — a quarter century of dated, checkable work.
Systems in production
- Self-Driving Agentic SDLC Factory — my own delivery loop, now scaling: a prioritized issue backlog goes in; reviewed, squash-merged software comes out, with a person only where a person matters.
- On-Call Schedule Shift Automation — a recurring manual chore, encoded once and run automatically inside the team’s observability tooling. In adoption.
- AI-Augmented SDLC for Legacy Migration — a governed, AI-augmented pipeline for migrating thousands of legacy stored procedures, targeting 30–50% lower cycle time at comparable or better quality.
- Always-On Apartment-Search Lead Engine — Find a Pad, my own system: every listing source watched, every find scored and scam-screened, the phone buzzing only when a lead is worth acting on.
- Reliability OS Platform Migration — Roger, my own consistency system, mid-migration from a single macOS authority to a Firebase-native platform with Firestore as the one source of truth.
- Low-Ticket Consumer Clarity Product — Read The Room, my own consumer product: a personalized clarity report delivered on a serverless stack where the unit economics are the design problem.
- Governed Influence-Growth Operator — a platform-agnostic growth system in which every outbound action waits for a human confirm: scale without spam.
From the studio record
The entertainment record is a different book, and it lives with my studio — dated, checkable, back to 2001. These five carry the full write-up — goal, constraints, force, time, result — on their pages:
David Blaine — Drowned Alive — I built and ran the full digital presence for a live seven-day stunt at Lincoln Center: davidblaine.com held national traffic at over a million unique visitors a day, ~10-minute average visits, 300,000 fan messages collected. The engagement ran about six years, through the ABC-specials era.
U.S. Department of Justice — “Know Where They Go” — I co-directed a :30 internet-safety PSA for a federal client, delivered to network clearance and aired nationally on NBC, CBS, Fox, and Oxygen.
Rubblebucket — two music videos — location shoots, live choreography with Juilliard dancers, delivered in sequence across two albums; Down in the Yards sits at six-figure views on the band’s official channel.
The XJ music patent — I took the adaptive-score engine’s core architecture through the full USPTO process as a solo inventor: granted 2019, assigned to my studio, in force and licensable through 2038.
Fever Tilt — the current build, shipping in public: an original 1v1 arena sport, solo-built, proven through weekly live play at Noisebridge, shown in the Ribbon-winning Coffee Table Arcade exhibit at Maker Faire Bay Area 2025, Steam Early Access this November.
