Three ways to reach me
Advisory
Work with me
One or two engagements accepted per quarter. Write with the shape of what you are building and where you are stuck. I reply within a week, or not at all.

The Ship Log letter
One letter every Friday from my desk. What shipped, what broke, what I read. A free tier, and a paid tier for the longer essays and the private archive.

Four steps · No decks
-
01
Write
One email with the shape of what you are building and where you are stuck. No form to fill, no call booked yet.
-
02
Verdict
A written read of your situation within a week: what is working, what is not, and whether I am the right person for it.
-
03
Build
A fixed-scope engagement with a cadence and evidence checkpoints. Weekly memos. Nothing hidden, nothing padded.
-
04
Retain
One or two retainers a quarter for the work that keeps going. Value-based, never hourly.
The person.
Twelve disciplines · One pair of hands
I am Lewis Byron De La Paz, and I like to make things. Not a studio, not an agency, no team behind the curtain. One person with a background in architecture, engineering, and art, who now makes software, brands, books, films, and systems, several at once: a private project under confidentiality, Bespoke Business Development, miya.life, and this site.
Operations management and artificial intelligence sit at the center of everything I ship. I am finishing a degree in Organizational Management, I have self-published three books, and I write, direct, and cut my own films.
I hold a full-time engineering position that runs on nights during the week. Everything else is built on mornings, weekends, and the hours nobody counts. This is not a hardship. It is the part I like.
