About

My mission on earth

People are lost — not for want of advice, there is more of that than anyone can use, but for want of someone who says where they are going and then keeps going there. My mission here is to walk the way that I know leads towards a better tomorrow.

Reality does not bend to wanting. It bends to standard held long enough that the people around you have to adjust.

Chronology

The line so far

2016

Signed an oath at illuminati.am

A commitment to contribute to a higher cause and to take my place in their universal design. Those who have taken it know what it is all about, and the weight that it carries.

2017

Undergone a journey of spiritual awakening

A passage rather than a single moment. What I held about myself and the world was taken apart and put back together, and everything after this point is built on what came out of it.

2018

Impacted change in my immediate surroundings

Pushed change through the people and conditions within reach. Not all of it passed. Nobody changes unless they decide to — but a standard held in front of them is something they have to adjust to.

2019

Planted the first seeds for Extended Universe

It began as voice-over work — written, recorded and set against stills, no camera. What came out of it was less an audience than a skill set: research, writing, editing and delivery, learned by making the thing rather than by studying it.

2020

Began publishing works from the X series

Balancing work. Written to course correct those falling out of their position in the universal design, and those interfering with the vision we are establishing, while further confirming my own position in it.

2020

Discovered the depth of business

The year business stopped being a word and became a subject. I went at it full speed, and it changed what I thought one person could build on their own, without permission or backing from anyone.

2021

Laid the foundation of the web design agency

The first thing I built and kept. It has been rebuilt, sharpened and raised every year since, and it has never been left to sit.

2022 — 2024

Laid the foundation for the future of Extended Universe

Groundwork rather than output. The parts that have to exist before the thing can carry real weight, put in place early, so that when I can give it everything, there is already something standing to give it to.

2025 · Ongoing

Doubled down on the agency

The major focus, and the engine rather than the side of things. Higher standard, better work, and the room it buys to build everything else.

Want to know what is coming next?

It is written down as it happens, in Bearings.

Lineage

Built on a strong foundation

Nothing here was built on my own. These are the people whose work shaped mine, and I name them because without their guidance I would have achieved nothing. These are my mentors.
