> hello, i'm

Lance Baggett

West Point grad. Army officer. Platform engineer. Now I build systems that help people — apps on the App Store, infrastructure at scale, and teams that outlast the person who built them. I bring clarity and structure to complex systems so people can perform at their best.

ABOUT
I'm warm first, analytical second — I build trust before I build systems. I stay composed when things break, lead without needing the spotlight, and default to listening before deciding. My instinct is to help, teach, and make people around me better at what they do.
