Quiet authority. Real-world range.
I build useful things and write about the process—drawing on a background that spans work with large cats (tigers, lions, cheetahs, pumas, panthers), fraud risk in fintech, practical fitness, and AI-driven workflows.
Who I am
I have gone by a quite a few different names over my lifetime, but you can call me Mike. I’ve split my time between hands-on work and analytical roles: raising and handling large exotic cats, performing in circuses, focusing on practical fitness, and building modern AI workflows.
- Based in Spain and North America
- Focus: fitness, workflows, risk ops
- Former circus performer and big-cat handler
- Languages: English, Spanish, Ukrainian, Russian, and the list goes on
