05 / ABOUT

Hi, I’m Jeremy.

I’m a technologist, connector, and creative. My work as a Modern Work Architect at Microsoft gives me a close-up view of how organizations navigate change—from enterprise platforms to AI. I bring that perspective to the things I build, write, and talk about here.

I’m most interested in what happens when technology meets people: how we understand it, make it useful, and create something meaningful with it. That’s the thread through my projects, conversations, and talks about AI and modern work.

Based in Charlotte, NC, I’m driven by creativity and connection — whether I’m behind a camera, sketching a new idea, or recording for my podcast. Lifelong learner, occasional philosopher over a glass of wine.
