my name is silas. i'm a software engineer turned product designer, working on AI.

i was born in hawaii and now live in the pacific northwest. as a lifelong learner, i'm completely self-taught. i devote my time to experimenting with emerging technologies and exploring how they shape human behavior. being around passionate builders and makers energizes me. i have a high bar for quality and am obsessed with every detail.

currently, you can find me leading design at IBM, building with agents, or writing the next post for my newsletter.
