Math-CS @ UC San Diego '29. I build whole systems rather than pieces of them — autonomy stacks, models from the matrices up, developer tooling — and I ship them.

"i like to think, and make others think."
| Project | What it is | Built with |
|---|---|---|
| Signalor | Public-sentiment platform for brands and investment firms. Sentiment led Apple's YoY revenue growth by a quarter on held-out data (r = 0.43) | SvelteKit, Bun, Prisma, Kafka, PostgreSQL, Redis |
| Outcast Virus | End-to-end autonomy OS for drone and ground-vehicle swarms — camera-based vSLAM, onboard perception, RL-trained multi-agent navigation. 1st place at DS3 × Bow Capital: won $4k, then a $100k offer to continue | Python, ORB-SLAM3, YOLO11, Jetson, React, Three.js |
| dont-hallucinate | Intercepts coding-agent shell failures, classifies what went wrong, suggests fixes — and mocks your agent. 500+ downloads on PyPI and npm | Python, Bash, PowerShell |
| weighted_map | The contiguous US redrawn so distance is travel time, not space. 253 origins, drive or fly, orbitable in 3-D (live) | Python, WebGL, GeoPandas, OSRM |
| Political Speech Classifier | Encoder-only transformer from raw matrix operations — no ML framework; attention, embeddings and the training loop by hand. 98.9% agreement with AllSides | Python, NumPy |
| ferrodoc | Pandoc-compatible document converter — CommonMark, GFM, HTML, DOCX — in process rather than by subprocess. On PyPI | Rust, Python, WASM |
| 3D Fractal Simulator | Full 3-D Julia set generator and explorer, hand-written at 15 before LLMs (live) | Unity, C# |
| routine-architect | Deploys a fleet of scheduled cloud agents from a committed manifest, with a watchdog that audits the fleet daily | Claude Code, Python |
| claude-iterate | Builder/critic loop — fresh critic agents review each round against a frozen goal until the work passes | Claude Code, Markdown agents |
| UCSD Crimes | Scrapes, organises and alerts on the UCSD campus crime log (live) | Python, Selenium, React, Node |
