What's happening now
Updated 1st April 2026, from my home in Britain.
Work, business, and projects
Currently contracting at TinyPilot.
I’ve been looking for interesting problems to solve with a B2B product. I found an interesting problem and I’ve been developing an MVP solution to it. I’m launching early-bird access this month. Setting up meetings with people has been hard - even just as a customer interview, not even a pitch/demo/sales call. The whole thing has felt pretty slow going. Marketing remains the hardest part of building a business.
liftingstones.org is taking a back seat so I can focus on building a business. When I do work on it, it’s in my personal time, so I’m being ruthless about what I do.
Personal
2026 is flying by.
I’m scheduled to lift the Dinnie Stones in June. And I’m a few weeks into my big training block leading up to the lift. It’s been going suprisingly well considering the injuries and minor pains I’ve had.
