Twenty years supporting systems that can't go down.

I sit in the gap between deep technical systems and the people who need them to work. Canada-born, raised on Tel Aviv's independent culture scene, now at home in Berlin — twenty years across technical support, customer success, broadcast engineering, production, and teaching. Bezalel Academy of Arts and Design, class of 2011.

The pattern repeats: a powerful, complicated system on one side; skeptical, busy professionals on the other. My job has been to make the two trust each other — whether that meant convincing Tier-1 broadcasters that a web layer wouldn't break national radio, teaching hundreds of students to broadcast-grade standards, or running a platform that 40 show hosts relied on every single day. Seven years hosting prime time at Galgalatz — live, hundreds of thousands of listeners, no retakes — taught me what zero-failure feels like from both sides of the glass.

I build, too — daily, hands-on, currently with agentic AI tools (Claude Code, Codex, Lovable, Ollama). Not to ship libraries, but because the fastest way to earn a customer's trust is to understand their system as well as they do.

Off the clock: vintage Hi-Fi, a deep record collection, headphones I review for fun, retro OS emulators, and odd little machines that move signals between the analog world and digital bits. GPIO FTW. (Time Out Tel Aviv once called me the city's “most beloved indie radio engineer.” I'll take it.)
