Howdy y'all 👋🤠

I'm Nick — a maintainer of AutoGPT, serial hackathon winner, and a Texan who once sent a weather balloon 30,000 ft into the stratosphere just to mint an NFT on the blockchain. It froze. It thawed. It minted. No regrets.

02 A few things about me

  • Launched a weather balloon to the stratosphere to mint the world's first NFT from space — 60L of helium, 10 bps satellite comms, one frozen camera, zero regrets.
  • Built a brainwave-controlled robot for ALS & quadriplegia patients — won Best IoT Hack at SXSW.
  • Built XR music production with a Magic Leap One at SXSW. Also won that one.
  • Competed in Destination Imagination Improv to a global top-10 finish as a kid; now I judge it.
  • 9+ hackathon wins. Solar-powered parking systems, esports Discord bots, bag-tracking RFID networks — you know, the classics.
  • Star Citizen player, Minecraft builder.
  • 3D-print Gridfinity bins and built a space optimizer for them.
  • Restarted UNT's robotics club from 0 → 80+ members, then immediately built more robots.
  • Night owl. Best commits happen around 1:30 AM CST, co-authored with Claude.
