About Me

Hi, I'm Cordell — a former software engineer with a respectable career in tech, a decade running my own non-tech businesses, and a lifelong habit of building things and being endlessly curious.

Of late, I find myself at a genuinely interesting crossroads. AI isn't just a tool anymore. It feels like we're at a turning point. And after years of watching from a comfortable distance, I'm deliberately diving in, learning, experimenting and writing honestly about what I find.

This blog is my attempt to make sense of it all — practically, thoughtfully without the hype.

A Bit of Background

Some career highlights along the way:

  • Senior Software Architect & Manager at Teleios Systems
  • Software Developer at Medullan leading a team to develop health-related software solutions for the US market
  • Solutions Architect at iGovTT providing technical consulting to the Government of the Republic of Trinidad and Tobago.
  • Chief Technology Officer at Caribbean Ideas leading a development team focued on integrating social meadia campaigns and software

Around 2015, I stepped away from the tech industry to take on a new kind of challenge — leading my family companies as Managing Director. It turned out that years of thinking in systems, architectures, and teams translated surprisingly well to running a business.

Still Building

I was never able to fully walk away from tech. Throughout the family company years, I continued to develop small tools and automations to make the day-to-day business decisions more data-driven — exactly the kind of quiet problem-solving I've always loved (while allowing me to sneak in some coding with justification).

Now that AI is reshaping the entire landscape in ways I find genuinely compelling, standing on the sidelines seems like, not just a waste of experience, but almost like a failure to step up when called.

I've decided to explore it with the same curiosity I brought to every platform I've ever built. Expect honest reflections, practical experiments, and the perspective of someone who has seen more than a few technology waves come and go.
