Kumeda
Infrastructure engineer, independent builder, ultrarunner, photographer, and music instigator.
I like ambitious problems that reward patience: a long mountain course, a complicated network, or a product that has to work for real people.

Endurance is a practice
The finish line is rarely the interesting part.
Andy’s running life started with the 1998 Los Angeles Marathon and grew into decades of trail races, 100-milers, volunteering, pacing, and route study.
The same curiosity now powers DFIU and RouteSmith—software shaped by actual race-day questions, not an abstract fitness brief.
