perpetual learning
Remaining deliberately unfinished before competence becomes a room with no other door.
kinetic agency
Ruining the perfection of the unattempted by putting work into contact with reality.
discernment
Selection as a creative act: what to keep, automate, complicate, and leave outside.
predictions
Three notes on vanishing interfaces, affordable failure, and freedom in an over-helpful world.
Places, teams, and problems that shaped how I build.
Jul 2026 - Present
Industry
Architected and shipped a full-stack commercial insurance brokerage platform, opened a new broker distribution channel that closed $60K in revenue within 10 days, and built supporting automation for broker communications and operations.
Nov 2025 - Present
Research
Built MonopolyBench, a long-horizon multi-agent evaluation environment for frontier LLMs that has captured 8,000+ decisions across 40M+ tokens through deterministic, schema-constrained, and fully replayable economic simulations.
Jan 2026 - May 2026
Industry
Led engineering for Glydr.gg through Consult Your Community, shipping a Railway-deployed configuration platform used by 2,000+ external customers and connecting the public product to distributed Control Panel clients.
Feb 2026 - Jun 2026
Research
Built an end-to-end computer vision pipeline for 3-chamber behavioral-neuroscience studies, adapting DeepLabCut/SuperAnimal to lab footage and improving pose-track stability by 56.9%.
Jan 2026 - Jul 2026
Supported residential operations at UT Dallas through direct resident guidance, incident escalation, community programming, conflict resolution, and coordination with Residential Life.
Apr 2025 - Nov 2025
Built exact optimization solvers and a 67,000-instance programmatic labeling pipeline for research on learning optimal drone coverage plans under distribution shift.
May 2024 - Aug 2024
Industry
Shipped Abilitie AI Cases across 27 enterprise role-play configurations, working from React product flows through structured inference, Llama 3.1 fine-tuning, model observability, and latency and cost optimization.
Aug 2021 - May 2022
Led peer mentorship, residential safety, conflict resolution, and emergency response inside a boarding-school community.
Software (and some hardware) I have designed, built, and shipped.
A long-horizon multi-agent evaluation environment for frontier LLMs, capturing 8,000+ decisions across 40M+ tokens through deterministic economic simulations, schema-constrained tools, and fully replayable agent trajectories.
A custom 60 Hz Formula 1 simulator and learning stack where CUDA evolutionary search produced an 89.327-second Monza lap, then behavior cloning and SAC trained a policy that completed the circuit in 78.683 seconds.
Finished top 6% worldwide in IMC Prosperity 4 among 18,803 teams, building market-making and statistical-arbitrage strategies with Black-Scholes voucher pricing and hindsight-oracle research.
A project-centered agentic hub where teams run reusable agents against company knowledge and turn their work into durable, reviewable outputs through shared memory, approvals, and automation.
A high-concurrency Go web crawler with BFS discovery, a host-partitioned frontier, robots-aware scheduling, PostgreSQL persistence, and a live reading interface; crawled 10,003 public pages in 67.96s (~147.2 pages/sec).
A 1st-place HackSMU (Solana Track) mobile accountability platform where users stake money on commitments, submit proof, and resolve outcomes through peer-validator voting and token escrow.
A personal digital museum for everything I have built, researched, written, and filmed, paired with a private tracker, Google Calendar sync, and a custom OAuth-secured MCP server that runs my entire life.
A live public research benchmark where 2 to 8 frontier models generate, anonymously critique, revise, and judge creative ideas, producing Glicko-ranked leaderboards with built-in bias audits.
A geometry-first neural lens-correction system combining Brown-Conrady calibration with learned residual flow; scored 0.8942 on the normalized leaderboard scale, earned an honorable mention, and led to a follow-up call with the CTO.
Stories and taste make us human, and I enjoy telling them through the lens.
