My Journey

Arriving in Covington felt like stepping into a community where history and future potential meet. Drawn by the city's vibrant charm, historic architecture, and walkability, I made Covington my home. Here, between the quiet streets of Mainstrasse and the rising tech hub of SparkHaus, I found a welcoming community that values independence, creativity, and connection.

This website is a personal chronicle of my transition to becoming a resident here—sharing my favorite local spots, my professional interests, and my essays on the intersection of technology, culture, and policy.

Covington Today: BLINK Weekend

This weekend, BLINK returns to illuminate the river cities. From projection-mapped light displays across historic downtown facades to drone shows over the river beside the Roebling Suspension Bridge, Covington is right at the heart of the celebration.

Read my latest dispatch on watching the festival take shape from our neighborhood streets, walking the Roebling corridor in the morning chill, and seeing our historic streets in an entirely new light.

I design and build software systems, participate in open-source projects, and share my work on GitHub. I focus on creating clean, practical tools that solve real-world problems.

Political & Cultural Commentary

I write what I am thinking about at the time, exploring modern politics, economic theory, tariff policies, globalism, and media structures, analyzing how changing narratives shape our collective future.

Walk the Cov

Follow along on one of my favorite walking routes through Covington — from the heart of Mainstrasse to the banks of the Ohio River.

Mainstrasse Village

The walk begins in Mainstrasse, Covington's charming German heritage district. Cobblestone streets, the iconic Carroll Chimes Bell Tower, and the smell of fresh coffee from local shops set the tone.

Goose Girl Fountain

A quick stop at the beloved Goose Girl Fountain — one of the most photographed spots in Covington. It's a reminder of the city's deep roots and the stories passed down through generations.

George Rogers Clark Park

Crossing into the park, you'll find the statue of Simon Kenton standing guard. This green space is perfect for a breather — benches, shade trees, and a view of the surrounding neighborhood.

Braxton Brewery

The walk ends at Braxton Brewery, where the community gathers over craft beer. It's become a hub for locals and newcomers alike — the perfect place to wrap up a Covington afternoon.
