Planet Pluto didn't come from a marketing deck or a startup pitch. It came from 10 years of building real systems, managing real teams, and noticing that the skills crossed over completely.
This isn't a story about someone who learned to code and decided to start an agency. It's a story about a decade of building real systems — and finally connecting the dots.

“I've built electrical systems from the powerline to the PLC. All the work I've ever done has been about building other people's trusted systems — by creating a healthy and trusting team and environment, which in turn creates quality work.”
“Over the last couple of months I began to see a lot of overlapping skills I had with what it takes to build and manage not only people but systems. Please reach out — let's talk.”
It started with gaming. About three years ago, I got into competitive Call of Duty and started getting invited to teams and Discord servers. That's when I first started paying real attention to how Discord actually works — the structure, the roles, the channels, the way communities are organized.
Most people just join and scroll. I started noticing the architecture. Why some servers felt alive and others felt dead. What made people stay. What made them leave. I didn't know it yet, but I was already thinking like a builder.
My actual career is in electrical and instrumentation — I've been doing it for about 10 years. For 6 of those years, I worked closely alongside automation technicians, programmers, and system integrators.
I've built electrical systems from the powerline all the way to the PLC. That means understanding how every component connects, how signals flow, how failures cascade, and how to design something that works reliably under pressure. You don't get to guess in that environment. Systems either work or they don't.
Last year I became an area lead at my job. That meant managing a team of I&E technicians, processing invoices, tracking spending, and overseeing work orders. Real operational responsibility.
I taught myself to be highly efficient in Excel and Microsoft tools. I started using Power Automate and other Office integrations to eliminate manual work and build processes that ran themselves. I wasn't just doing the job — I was engineering how the job got done.
Over the last couple of months, I started seeing the overlap clearly. Building a Discord server isn't that different from designing a system — you're mapping out structure, defining roles, creating flows, and making sure everything connects the way it should.
Managing a community isn't that different from managing a team — you're building trust, setting expectations, creating an environment where people do quality work. All the work I've ever done has been about building systems that other people can rely on. That's exactly what Planet Pluto is.
I didn't pivot into this. I arrived here because every skill I've built over the last decade pointed in this direction.
The skills that make a great electrical engineer and team lead are the same skills that make a great digital builder. Here's exactly how they map.
Designing circuits from the powerline to the PLC — every component mapped, every signal accounted for.
Designing servers from top-level categories to individual permissions — every channel purposeful, every role connected.
Building systems that run without constant human intervention — reliable, repeatable, and self-correcting.
Building bots and automations that handle moderation, onboarding, and operations without anyone babysitting them.
Managing I&E technicians — setting expectations, building trust, creating an environment where quality work happens.
Structuring communities with clear roles, healthy culture, and systems that keep members engaged and respected.
Tracking work orders, processing invoices, using Power Automate to eliminate manual tasks and build efficient workflows.
Building organizational systems, staff hierarchies, and documented workflows that keep digital operations running smoothly.
“I didn't pivot into this. I arrived here because every skill I've built over the last decade pointed in this direction.”
Planet Pluto is being built by someone who has spent a decade building systems that other people trust. If that resonates with you — whether you want a build, want to join the community, or just want to talk — reach out. No pitch, no pressure.
We build. You grow.
