bio¶
Hi, I’m Kevin. I live in the boonies of Redmond, WA - about halfway between Seattle and Snoqualmie Pass.
I moved out here from Montana (go Bobcats!) and continue to be a powder snob while occasionally working on my trail-building chops.
After Hydrosat I took a couple of years off to mountain bike, ski and rest. These days I am back at it, building web apps with Claude (racinglines) and looking for my next move: big AI companies, sports trading desks, a seat as someone's quant, or any other +EV collaboration.
