What I’m Doing Now
Last updated: August 2026
This page is a snapshot of what has my attention right now. It’s intentionally temporary. If you’re reading this a few months from now, there’s a good chance some of it has changed.
Building
I’m building Compass, this website, almost entirely in collaboration with ChatGPT. It’s been a fun excuse to dive back into WordPress development, improve my Git workflow, and create a place to document what I’m learning. I’ve also started to think about building a “side hustle” to offer my services to businesses that need MarTech help.
Along the way I’m trying to be intentional about the process—building one feature at a time instead of chasing every new idea.
The source code lives on GitHub, where I’m treating this like a real software project rather than just another website.
Work
Professionally, I’m focused on improving marketing operations through better systems.
Lately that has meant a lot of work around Salesforce Marketing Cloud, Data Cloud, documentation, data discovery, and making complex marketing platforms easier to understand and maintain.
Training
I’m balancing CrossFit with Running as I’ve always done in the past.
Running has always reminded me that consistency beats intensity. The same lesson seems to apply to almost everything worth doing.
Learning
Right now I’m spending a lot of time learning about:
- AI-assisted software development
- Salesforce Data Cloud
- Marketing Operations
- WordPress theme development
- Git and GitHub workflows
Currently Enjoying
A few things I’ve been enjoying lately:
- The Acquired podcast (especially the Walt Disney episode)
- Exploring Claude and ChatGPT as development partners
- Rewatching the 3rd season of Twin Peaks and a show called Altered Carbon on Netflix.
This page is inspired by Derek Sivers’ “Now” idea. It’s meant to answer one simple question: what has my attention right now?
