Yo! I’m J, writer, builder, and your resident geek at Geekist.

I’ve spent the last 20 years engineering high-performance software, leading cross-continental teams, and crafting products that don’t just work — they sing. JavaScript, TypeScript, Rust, WordPress, static sites — you name it, I’ve broken and rebuilt it better.

Geekist is my playground for all things code, content, and clever hacks. Here, I share deeply technical guides, dev tools, publishing workflows, and creative takes on the developer journey. Expect tutorials with teeth, pipelines with punch, and the occasional spicy metaphor.

When I’m not shipping code or shipping books, I’m mentoring devs, remixing beats, and laughing with my daughters and partner-in-chaos, Simo.

Welcome to the smarter, stranger side of software.
