Hi, I'm Miguel!

I build systems—digital and physical.

I’m an Engineering Project Manager in Minnesota, focused on delivering critical public infrastructure, like roads and utilities. My curiosity doesn't stop at the construction site, though. I am a self-taught hobby developer who believes the strict discipline of engineering should be applied to technology and everyday problem-solving.

This site is my public workshop: a place to document the process of learning. I think a lot, work hard, and occasionally have existential crises, but my constant motivation is finding elegant, practical solutions to complex problems. You'll find me documenting how I connect contract management with coding, all while working with a meticulously curated music playlist in the background. Check out my latest explorations below.
