I build software for decisions people have to defend.
I'm a 17-year-old founder and developer in Oakland, CA.
I build AI tools for high-stakes work — legal intelligence, defense systems, aviation risk, sensory science. Most of my attention goes to the unglamorous half: making an answer checkable, and letting the system say when it doesn't know.
The through-line is decisions somebody has to defend afterwards — to a partner, a regulator, or themselves. That constraint changes what you build.
I've been teaching myself since I was nine, and I don't quit until a problem is solved. Keep scrolling.

Writing
- Let it say I don't knowJun 18, 2026
A system that always gives you an answer is easy to build and hard to trust.
- The worst likely dayMay 2, 2026
A go/no-go decision is a bet on the tail, not on the average. Most risk scores model the average.
- Against people, or for themMar 11, 2026
I learned to build by taking games apart. The useful part was not the exploits.
