Projects
Most of my professional work is proprietary, so I describe the types of systems I build without sharing internal content. For hands-on examples, I include personal projects that show how I think and build.
Professional work (described)
Forecasting framework & scenario model
Market analytics system (non-public)
A structured approach to turning market signals into consistent directional views and scenarios. Designed to make assumptions explicit, track what changes them, and communicate outcomes clearly.
Supply–demand balances + trade flow structure
World analysis (non-public)
Integrated balance structure that connects production, operating rates, trade flows, and schedules into a coherent view of market tightness and risk.
Indicator monitoring + dashboard workflow
Internal analytics (non-public)
Repeatable monitoring workflow that reduces manual reporting and helps focus attention on the few indicators that actually move the story.
Standardized reporting templates
Consistency + speed
Structured templates that keep outputs consistent across cycles and reduce friction when markets change quickly.
Personal projects (hands-on)
HVAC Optimization & Smart Home Automation
Weighted comfort logic + reliable execution
Built a multi-room HVAC control approach using weighted temperature averaging, priority overrides (e.g., nursery comfort), and sensor aggregation to balance comfort and energy efficiency. Implemented with a mix of YAML automations and Node-RED flows to keep the logic explicit, testable, and repeatable.
Home energy monitoring + gas usage dashboard
From raw meter signal to usable insights
Integrated a gas meter signal into Home Assistant and built a dashboard to track consumption and make billing/usage trends easy to understand. Focused on reliability (signal capture), clean entities, and meaningful presentation.
Proxmox homelab for services + experimentation
Infrastructure learning lab
A small homelab environment used to run services and experiment safely: virtual machines, resource planning, segmentation, and maintenance workflows.
Local LLM on a mini PC (self-hosted AI)
Private inference + practical integrations
Set up a local language model service on a mini PC and integrated it into personal tooling for experimentation. Focus areas include privacy, latency, reliability, and making AI useful in real workflows (not just demos).
Discord bot (automation + community utilities)
A practical coding project
Built a Discord bot to automate community workflows and add quality of life features. This project is a good example of iterative development: add features, observe behavior, refine.
DIY & electronics experiments
Hands-on systems thinking
A collection of small electronics and automation builds: sensors, control logic, and practical household upgrades. I enjoy the mix of constraints — power, reliability, and clean wiring — and making it all work end-to-end.
