Let's start a conversation
Whether you have a specific project in mind, want to collaborate on something creative, or just want to say hello — we'd love to hear from you.
The Story
Howling Global is the umbrella for everything I do. At its core is Howl Tech Inc — my IT consulting practice where I help organizations design and deliver technology solutions.
I've worked as an Adobe Architect at DigitalCtrl and IBM iX, and now run Howl Tech Inc bringing that experience to clients who need hands-on technical leadership.
The other divisions — Kitchen, Creative, Ranks, and Store — are where my other interests live. This site is self-hosted on my own infrastructure, built with modern tools, and designed to be maintainable.
What I Believe
Build things that work
Practical over theoretical. Ship it, iterate, improve. The best architecture is the one that actually gets deployed.
Own your infrastructure
Self-hosting, open source, and understanding the full stack. Don't outsource what you should understand.
Stay curious
The best work comes from genuine interest. Whether it's a new cloud service or a new recipe, the approach is the same.
Keep it simple
Complexity is the enemy. The right solution is usually the simplest one that meets the requirements.
