Hello. I'm Mike Pastore, a technologist and family man based in Pittsburgh, PA. I have a wonderful wife and two amazing kids and we stay pretty busy keeping up with it all.

I've spent most of my career in healthcare technology, and what keeps me motivated is the work actually matters. Better technology in healthcare means better experiences and outcomes for real people. I get to play a meaningful role in that and I don't take it lightly.

My son and I mess around with vibe code side projects when we feel like it. Some of them end up here.

The world is a crazy place in 2026, a few orgs that I feel can make a difference are linked, donate your time or money to help unwind the crazy.

I may eventually write a few other things down here. We'll see.

If you're here to verify I'm who you think I am, I probably am, check the LinkedIn.
