About
I build wind and rain rigs to stress tents, log pole deflection and fabric flutter, and translate failure modes into stability scores you can sleep through. My field notes focus on which stake patterns, fabrics, and pole geometries calm the tent when the forecast spikes.
Background
During a coastal squall test, a three-pole dome started breathing like a lung—silent until a gust snapped the tempo. Our cameras saw what comfort feels like: absorbed energy, not drama. That night I slept dry, dog snoring, while stakes clicked. Data, not bravado, kept us comfortable.
Perspective
I overweight storm performance and structure, even if it adds ounces or cost.
