What I’m here for

I’m at SmallSat 2026 presenting F Prime to Flight Faster, hardware-in-the-loop continuous integration for CubeSat development, with Saidi Adams and Michael Pham.

I’m also here to talk open source for small satellites. I’ve brought open source hardware from PROVES Kit and Build a CubeSat if anyone wants to see it.

Elsewhere

I lead the flight software team at the Texas State Space Lab, a contributor to PROVES, the Open Source Space Foundation’s open-source CubeSat program, and build distributed platforms on Kubernetes at WP Engine. More on the about page, or the older writing.

Think and do.
