Profile
Software architect with an unusual route in: a decade in vehicle systems, five years of hands-on port and terminal operations - stevedore, crane operator, supervisor - then IT management and full-time software. I build logistics and infrastructure systems from first principles, and I've driven the machines that logistics software schedules.
