Hey, I'm Bob.
Currently, I'm a CTO Advisor/Consulting Architect @ BUILT, where I help organizations leverage AI to transform their product delivery and customer experiences – but only when traditional software development won't cut it.
My journey's been wonderfully non-linear: from building hardware/software systems for medical researchers and testing silicon for the 68040 processor, to recently earning my M.S. in Physics from NCSU (2024). While there, I worked in observational astrophysics, studying distant celestial objects through the stories their light tells us.
The below animation isn't from our research, but shows the type of analysis we were doing in a beautiful way. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0-htZLVrGrk&ab_channel=Waspie_Dwarf%27sAstronomy%26SpaceChannel
I'm a builder at heart – whether it's coding in React and Python, designing systems architecture, or creating in Blender. Each career pivot has added a unique perspective to how I approach problems and innovation.
