Founder · Maryville, Tennessee
Founder of three companies in Maryville, Tennessee — a wheel business, a technology company and a business park — and the builder of the software that operates them 24/7.
A wheel business, a technology company and a business park, all in Maryville, sharing one through-line: software that turns manual, repetitive operations into systems that mostly run themselves.
OEMWheel.com · Steel-Wheel.com
Factory-original (OEM) and replacement wheels, reconditioned from cores and sold through OEMWheel.com, Amazon, eBay and Walmart, and wholesale to the trade.
My technology company. It builds and operates software for local businesses: websites and hosting today, and AI agent teams that handle the work after hours.
A commercial business park in Maryville, Tennessee that rents its buildings to local businesses — stand-alone buildings and quonset huts for retail and the trades.
Different markets, same playbook: find the repetitive work, encode it once, and let the software carry the load.
All three companies are operated through one body of software I build and run myself: an agentic operating system, a set of small apps, and a running list of projects. None of it is a demo. Each piece carries a real part of the businesses.
.seed is an agentic OS built on Claude Code. Every capability is a word: a skill with a mechanical half that actually runs, so the model plans and code executes. Every word declares what it can break — read · write · spend · send · irreversible — and the system enforces that ladder before anything runs. Nothing sends on its own. Software drafts; a person sends.
It reads the companies’ ledgers, mail and sites, runs the routines that need no brain as plain code, remembers one fact per file, and asks when a decision is mine.
“Every word has a core like a peach. The seed is the mechanical code. As the mechanical code grows, so can the potential of the idea.”
— the idea the whole system is built on
The same principles show up in everything — whether it’s an AI agent, a parts catalog or a lease.
The highest-leverage software replaces the work nobody wants to do twice. Find the repetition, encode it, move on.
A process that runs without me is worth more than a great day of manual effort. Build the machine, then improve the machine.
Real data beats opinions. Get something live, watch how it behaves, and let the metrics decide what gets built next.
Small teams, sharp tools, and software that does the heavy lifting. Stay fast by staying simple.
Every action is graded by what it can break. Reads are free, writes stay inside the workspace, spending asks, and a message leaves only when a person presses send.
If it is not in a file it did not happen. Every dashboard is a view, every claim names its source, and a number comes with the time it was measured.
I’m a founder and builder based in Maryville, Tennessee. I run three companies: Factory Parts, the wheel business behind OEMWheel.com; Fazer Tech, my technology company; and Huts Business Park, where the other two are tenants.
I’ve been programming since I was a kid. Today my work spans applied AI and agent systems on one side and e-commerce and property operations on the other. The thread connecting them is automation: I’d rather build a system once than do the same task a hundred times. Lately that means autonomous tooling that handles real operational load — not demos, but software that has to actually work.
I’m biased toward shipping. A rough system running in the real world teaches me more in a week than a perfect plan teaches me in a month, so I get things live early and let what actually happens decide the next move. The companies I run are, in a real sense, a testbed for that idea — each one a place to prove that software can carry more of the load than people assume.
If you run a business nearby and want the boring parts handled, or you’re working on hard problems in AI, automation or commerce and want to compare notes, I’d like to hear from you.
Open to conversations about applied AI, automation, commerce and the park. The fastest way to reach me is email.
