OMG IT'S DEREK
Hey. I'm Derek.
Hey nerds, I'm Derek. I test emerging technology, build useful AI systems, make videos, and write honestly about fatherhood and the messy work of building a real life.
What I am doing now
Right now I am building AiMe and the systems around it, growing Storynest and Custody Journal, making videos, and continuing my work around fatherhood and fair custody. This is where I show the work without forcing it into one clean niche.
Builder
I make practical AI systems, automations, and products around problems I understand firsthand.
Creator
I have published more than 1,900 videos since 2018, documenting technology, games, fatherhood, and the work behind the work.
Dad and advocate
I write about single fatherhood, fair custody, and why safe, loving parents should not have to prove they belong in their children's lives.
