Building systems at the intersection of money and intelligence.

Hi 👋

I'm Eric, a software designer and entrepreneur based in Calgary, Canada 🇨🇦. I have been designing and coding software since 2003. I'm the co-founder and CEO of Bidali, where we have developed technologies that empower regular people across 154 countries to participate in the global economy on their own terms. More recently I've been doing deep research into AI inference and performant model architectures. I'm very interested in where those two transformative technologies meet, because together they could raise the GDP of the planet and equalize access to both intelligence and money.

I have a passion for building beautiful products people love. A lot of my time recently has gone to AI: agentic systems and internal tooling, local inference on Apple Silicon, and a research project testing whether speech models can run on coupled-oscillator physics instead of attention. The rest goes to distributed systems, secure programmable money, and the history of money, banking and economics.
