Unconventional Alignment.
Pragmatic Scale.
Turning tangled industrial data into clean, working digital platforms.
Most enterprise operations run on a digital junk drawer—spreadsheets that don't talk to each other, maps that crash browsers, and metrics nobody fully trusts. Over the last twenty years, I have built single sources of truth, designed analytics architectures, and launched full-stack platforms that turn operational chaos into straightforward tools.
The 5th Meridian Standard
In surveying, a meridian is the fixed line of reference you measure everything against. That is how I build software: zero buzzword hype, zero over-engineered bloat—just clear pipelines and interfaces that do their job.
If a system doesn't make life easier for the person using it, I rebuild it until it does. Data should flow with purpose, and software should ship.
“Design sets the course; execution ships the system.”
Featured Systems
Production software I built to solve real operational bottlenecks.
HydroScout
South Saskatchewan River Basin Water Rights Explorer
Finding commercial water rights in Alberta used to mean digging through thousands of disconnected regulatory PDFs. I built HydroScout to put the entire South Saskatchewan River Basin onto one fast, interactive map—so consultants, municipalities, and water users can search allocations, check priority dates, and spot transfer opportunities in seconds instead of weeks.
5M Grid Monitor
Western Canadian Infrastructure & Risk Dashboard
A zero-latency spatial map I built to track active drilling rigs, Crown land sales, and orphan well liabilities across Western Canada—without the clunky drag of legacy desktop GIS software.
What I Build
Fast Browser Maps
Leaflet maps that render WCSB telemetry and DLS grids quickly—no advanced GIS degree required to use them.
Automated Workflows
Automated pipelines that connect messy databases to clean dashboards, so teams stop re-keying the same numbers by hand.
Answers AI Can Cite
I structure websites so both humans and AI search engines find the exact answer—and know it came from the right source.
Research, Specifications & Case Studies
Engineering the Basin Knowledge Graph
How I turned DLS coordinates, AER Directive 088 rules, and WCSB data into a structure that AI assistants can cite accurately.
The Unburned Powder Keg
My plain-English breakdown of Western Canadian orphan well liabilities, cleanup costs, and why the numbers matter.
5M Grid: Monitoring the Shift
How real-time maps and better data help energy teams spot change earlier instead of reacting after the fact.
The Forty-Ninth Protocol
Why Canadian data residency is a legal fiction under the U.S. CLOUD Act — and how enterprises can reclaim network and AI sovereignty.
Let's Build Something
I work directly with leadership to shape platform architecture, run contract builds, and vet technical direction. Tell me what you're trying to fix—or what you want to launch—and I'll respond personally.
