I’m building a verification-first operating system for stormwater and drainage infrastructure, designed to turn a fragmented, reactive industry into a data-driven, auditable system. The Terrain Ecosystem connects field reality → compliance → long-term asset intelligence across residential, commercial, and municipal environments. The platform is structured across four integrated layers: • Terrain Vision — AI-powered site intelligence that converts photos, terrain data, and field inputs into scoped drainage and stormwater plans. • Terrain Guard — An on-chain asset registry creating immutable lifecycle records for inspections, maintenance, and work performed. • Stormwater SCM — Inspection logs, checklists, and audit-ready compliance packets for HOAs, municipalities, insurers, and asset managers. • TRN (Solana) — An optional incentive layer that rewards verified data contributions, inspections, and compliant participation. Carolina Terrain (NC Licensed Contractor CL.1872) operates as the field verification layer, supplying ground-truth data, real installations, and compliance documentation that anchor the system in reality. The goal is simple: make stormwater infrastructure verifiable, auditable, and continuously accountable over its full lifecycle.

-Licensed drainage + stormwater contractor focused on engineered fixes + documentation. -Drainage + grading + erosion remediation for residential/commercial sites -Ground-truth capture: site media, measurements, as-builts, scope documentation -Installs + inspections feed structured datasets powering Terrain ecosystem products -Partners: NDS Preferred, Keystone Authorized, Stormwater certified

Led internal operations, systems, and process optimization for a data-driven services company. Responsibilities spanned workflow design, project coordination, financial analysis, customer issue escalation, and system reliability. Focused on identifying single points of failure, improving documentation, and building repeatable processes across teams. Experience here formed the operational foundation for compliance workflows, structured data handling, and verification-first system design later applied in infrastructure and asset lifecycle management.

Founded and operated a regional property services business, managing field crews, customer workflows, and repeat service operations—early groundwork for later systemized, compliance-driven infrastructure platforms.

Completed a focused study program on sustainable business systems in the Netherlands, with emphasis on circular economy models, regulatory frameworks, and sustainability reporting. Examined how European municipalities and enterprises design, document, and govern infrastructure and environmental systems over long lifecycles. This experience contributed early perspective on compliance-driven operations, lifecycle accountability, and systems-based environmental management later applied to stormwater and infrastructure platforms.

Early-career exposure to investment diligence, data operations, and documentation-heavy business environments. Supported research, records organization, and operational analysis for early-stage and portfolio companies operating in regulated or data-sensitive contexts. Work included organizing structured datasets, documenting business processes, supporting early venture analysis, and assisting with system reliability during operational transitions. This experience formed an early foundation in data integrity, documentation discipline, and audit-conscious operations later applied to regulated infrastructure, compliance workflows, and lifecycle record systems.
