Mykhailo Naumenko

Mykhailo Naumenko

I am a software engineer working at the intersection of frontend architecture, distributed systems, and real-time applications. Currently, I work on production systems for autonomous transportation, where I build web-based control and monitoring interfaces used to observe and support live vehicle operations. My work involves React, TypeScript, real-time data pipelines (MQTT, Kafka), and 3D visualization in the browser using Three.js - all under strict performance and correctness constraints.
I started programming at an early age and have since worked across startups and engineering teams, including building and operating a large-scale digital product serving users across Ukraine. Today, my focus is on designing frontends that interact with imperfect, eventually consistent systems in the physical world - where latency, ordering, and data integrity directly affect human decision-making.
I enjoy sharing real production lessons with the developer community, especially the challenges that emerge when web applications move beyond dashboards and become operational tools.

Laura Blersch

Laura Blersch

As a late-diagnosed individual with combined ADHD, I've navigated a unique path that's led me to where I am today. I hold an MBA with a focus on leadership and a few professional certifications. I found my way operations and project management while in cultural exchange. My work for updating and improving business process through automation has helped me play to how my brain is wired. My diverse experiences outside my professional life extend to being a kids' ski instructor and race coach, reflecting my love for mentorship and skill development. In my free time, I'm an avid skier with an extreme fear of heights, I am making the most of the slopes and facing fears whenever I can. In the summer, I enjoy helping on my sister's farm, where we grow about 4 acres and about 10 varieties of heirloom tomatoes. I embrace the joys of outdoor life and family connections.

Kody Hartlaub

Kody Hartlaub

Kody Hartlaub is an internationally recognized performance specialist in the mental architecture of champions. He works exclusively with elite athletes, Olympic contenders, world-class competitors,
and high-performing organizations—including professional athletes on the Philadelphia Phillies, world champions pursuing their next title, Olympic-stage athletes, Division 1 programs, and corporations like L'Oréal—to unlock performance at the highest level.
In less than a decade, Kody has executed a complete program turnaround at the college level, taking a Division 3 athletic program from last place to top-tier status in under a year. He's guided a two-
time world champion through his pursuit of a third championship. He's positioned Olympic-level athletes for international competition. He's embedded himself in locker rooms and boardrooms where the margin of error is zero, and results are the only currency that matters.
His work is about diagnosis and execution. Kody identifies the psychological architecture underneath performance: the belief systems, decision-making patterns, emotional regulation, and mental discipline that separate champions from competitors. He rebuilds that architecture from the foundation up, then ensures it performs under pressure, when it counts most.
Kody holds a bachelor's degree in psychology and is completing his master's in sport performance and psychology. More importantly, he is personally mentored by Ben Newman, one of the five most respected performance coaches in the world. He has been selected as a judge for the International Globee Awards for Excellence: a distinction reserved for the elite practitioners in his field.
As founder of KHP Coaching, creator of the Diamond Leadership Architecture framework, and architect of the KHP1 performance community, Kody doesn't build athletes. He builds champions who know exactly who they are, what they're capable of, and how to deliver it when the stakes are highest

Paul McLellan

Paul McLellan

Paul McLellan is a Solution Architect and Product Manager at Suite Engine, where he bridges product strategy, sales enablement, and cross-functional leadership for Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central solutions. With over 30 years of experience spanning global eCommerce, distribution, payment processing, and software design, he specializes in overseeing integrated solutions that connect ERPs to the platforms where commerce actually happens — Amazon, Shopify, Walmart, and beyond.

Before joining Suite Engine, Paul owned and operated LightBulbs.com, a global online distribution business he built from the ground up over three decades. That firsthand experience — managing inventory across warehouses, reconciling marketplace settlements, and navigating the realities of multi-channel fulfillment — gives him a perspective that most solution architects simply don't have. He's lived on the customer side of every integration problem he now solves.

His career in technology started long before eCommerce existed. In 1991, Paul taught himself to code by writing video games on a Commodore Amiga, sparking a lifelong obsession with how software should work and — just as importantly — how it should feel. That user-first design philosophy runs through everything he does, from API architecture to the pixel-level details of a UI.

Paul lives in Minnesota with his wife and nine children — so when he talks about managing complexity at scale, he means it in every sense.
