A career across technology, content, and product

I studied Computer Science and Mathematics at Emory University, then spent the first part of my career in technical roles. Earlier professional experience included programming, network administration, systems analysis, business analysis, and IT support. That background still shapes how I work across content, technology, product, engineering, marketing, and operations.

In 2007 I started writing down the technology problems I was already solving at work. That side project became Online Tech Tips, then a network of audience-specific publications. In 2010 I began operating the work full time through AK Internet Consulting. The job became editorial strategy, team leadership, search, analytics, monetization, and the WordPress systems underneath high-traffic sites.

I recruited and managed a distributed group of writers and editors, set standards, and stayed close enough to the writing to edit and to publish under my own name. The network reached approximately 7–8 million monthly pageviews at its peak and now holds more than 4,500 technology articles across five publications.

Search and distribution changed more than once. So did advertising and social referral. The useful habit was the same: look at performance, decide whether the idea, the execution, or the channel had failed, and then update, prune, or double down. AI should accelerate research, production, analysis, and distribution, while human judgment remains responsible for original thinking, accuracy, editorial point of view, and quality.

That same habit is now in product work. I built and operate PositionTracker, a SaaS dashboard for stock and options positions that is live at positiontracker.trading, directing the product and implementing it with AI-assisted development. I am not a licensed financial adviser, and I do not present the product as institutional portfolio management.
