    These personal projects are at the intersection of curiosity, data, and intentional living. From OnlyGarageCondos.com, a first-of-its-kind niche real estate platform combining data, listings, and market insight, to TenWilsons, which uses real numbers, real stories from real people to demystify building wealth and financial choices. Thinking Hammock offers reflective balance with frameworks and tools for slowing down, clarifying values, and designing a life with intention.

    Alongside these, my ongoing research and writing on Bitcoin and Berkshire Hathaway that are two high-quality, value-oriented, non-correlated assets that reflect my long-term focus on durable systems/networks, disciplined capital allocation, and long-term focus.
