Yesterday Mark Cuban reposted my work, DM'd me, and told me to keep telling my story. So here it is. I'm a Master Electrician. IBEW Local 369. 15 years pulling wire in Kentucky. Zero coding background. I didn't go to Stanford. I went to trade school. Every week I'd show up to a home where someone just bought a Tesla or a Rivian. And every time, someone had already told them they needed a $3,000-$5,000 panel upgrade to install a charger. 70% of the time? They didn't need it. The math is in the NEC — Section 220.82. Load calculations. But nobody was doing them for homeowners. Electricians upsell. Dealers don't know. And the homeowner just pays. I got angry enough to build something about it. I found @claudeai. No coding experience. I just started talking to it like I'd explain a job to an apprentice. "Here's how load calcs work. Here's the NEC code. Now help me build a tool that does this." 6 months later — @ChargeRight is live. Real software. Stripe payments. PDF reports. NEC 220.82 calculations automated. $12.99 instead of a $500 truck roll. I'm still pulling wire. I still take service calls. I wake up at 5:05 AM for work. But something shifted. Yesterday @vivilinsv published my story as Claude Builder Spotlight #1. Mark Cuban saw it. The Claude community showed up. And for the first time, I felt like this thing I built in my kitchen might actually matter. I'm not a tech founder. I'm a dad who wants to coach little league and be home for dinner. I just happened to build something that helps people. If you're in the trades and thinking about using AI — do it. The barrier isn't technical skill. It's believing you're allowed to try. EVchargeright.com

This is a long read but an important one. In education, we have the biggest task of figuring out how to prepare our students for this future. ⁦⁦ axios.com/2025/05/28/ai-…

If this doesn’t give you goosebumps… Amazing.

Here’s to another trip around the sun! 🥳

@peteybuckets There are so many of us Mason fans. Growing up in Virginia. I’m glad you heard how loud we could be. I feel like that’s just a start. I know so many Mason fans that couldn’t make it to this weekend. There are so many of us.

Listen to this crowd man, I hope the administration realizes what a sleeping giant we've got here and invests accordingly. We've got the coach, time to build the program.

Today would have been Mom's 77th birthday. We held a commemoration for her at @HARTforAnimals near Deep Creek Lake, MD. Adopt a dog/cat if you vacation or live here, you'll see a favorite quote of Mom's. Miss you, love you Moka

Highlights from this weekend’s game, our team worked really well together and can’t wait for our upcoming games! We are 8-1 heading into our last in season game of middle school varsity.

It costs $0.00 to be kind.
