The Truman Show
Hi, I'm Truman. Yes, named after the movie. And yes, I know you're watching.
A little about myself
As a first generation American, I feel like it is an obligation to work hard and maximize the opportunities to make this little life grand.
My goal is to experience everything that interests me and share those experiences with good people, friendly or new, whether that is traveling to new places, picking up new hobbies, experiencing different cultures, or any other itch I have.
On the outside it looks like a series of side quests, but that is my main quest. Because on the off chance that life is a simulation, I'm striving for a 90%+ on my Rotten Tomatoes.
Some stuff to vibe over
The Buckeye life
I am an Ohio State alum. Go Bucks!
Euro summer
I spent a summer crossing Europe by train, staying in hostels, looking at buildings older than America itself.
Digital nomading
I spent a year working on the road, exploring America from New York to California.
Nature-maxxing
I'm on a mission to visit all 63 US national parks. 25 down but the best views are still ahead... hopefully.
Japan... nuff said
Yea I love Japan. Let's talk about it.
Martial arts
I enjoy watching and playing most sports, but I have an affinity for MMA. I used to train Muay Thai and wrestling. Let's tussle?
When I'm not side questing
When I'm not on the road or doing something silly, I like to sink my teeth into a project, whether it's something creative or something useful.
Some stuff I've done
Work
Building an inbound lead engine that qualifies and routes in <2mins
An inbound lead qualification and routing system that researches, qualifies, routes, and announces every form submission on its own — pulling in a human only for the genuinely ambiguous calls.
Work
Cutting personalized sales-asset production from 15 minutes to zero
A batch automation that turns our product insights into personalized, print-ready sales scorecards — a team of agents pulls the data and hands back finished HTML and PDFs with zero manual entry.
Personal
Building StackTier, a tier-list tool that forces honest rankings
stacktier.app — a tier-list app that bakes a bell curve into the tool so most items land in the middle and only the genuine best and worst earn an S or a D. My first vibe-coded app, and it's live.
Some thoughts I have
Still getting some thoughts on paper.
