THE INDEX — FIVE PRACTICES, ONE PERSON

↓ PICK A THREAD

Software

Agentic voice AI, distributed systems, data engineering, and inference at scale. High-throughput serving and production-grade software.

Hardware

Deterministic control systems, SoC design, and embedded architectures. FreeRTOS on Cortex-M7, Verilog/UVM, and edge AI hardware bring-up.

Research

Physics-informed control, biofeedback telemetry, and quantitative finance. Multi-agent HFT, published papers, and automotive electronics patents.

Open Source

LLM serving frameworks, developer tools, and kernel-level experimentation. Community building, self-hosting systems, and upstream contributions.

Design

Interaction and brand design. Interfaces that argue a point — and convert. Trained in graphic design, UI/UX, and research.

✦ ON THE RECORD

I found my first SQL injection at sixteen and didn't know what to do with the feeling. It never quite left. I build things that can't fail — ECUs in a race car, voice agents in a hospital — and I keep asking what they cost the people on the other side of the screen. The engineering is the easy part.
