Software Developer · Security & Identity

This is a collection of things I've built, problems I've worked through, and ideas I'm exploring.

About

A builder,
first.

I’m a software developer with a background in security. I like figuring out how things work and building software that makes them work better. Sometimes that means developing an application around a team’s needs; other times, it means connecting existing systems so people can spend less time working around them.

My work at Solidigm and the University of California has put that approach into practice in identity and security operations. I’ve built internal applications and helped teams make sense of fragmented information and move through security investigations faster. Working in security has shaped how I approach software: thinking about how it will be used, what can go wrong, and how people will maintain it.

Outside of work, I like visiting national parks and tinkering with home automation. I’m usually building something, whether it solves a small everyday problem or gives me a reason to learn. The projects here are a mix of both.

Selected work

I build tools to inspect model execution, ground documents in evidence, and bring security checks into daily development.

Learning & instrumentation

Trace Explorer

A learning project where I recorded part of a local model run and built a viewer for the tokens, vector magnitudes, routing weights, and output scores.

I added the capture hooks, wrote checks for the recorded data, and built the viewer.

Document tooling & local models

TexTailor

A résumé and cover-letter workflow that proposes edits to selected text, checks the format, shows a diff, and builds a PDF for review.

I built the workflow around marked LaTeX sections, structured edit proposals, targeted checks, diff review, and PDF compilation.

Open-source developer tooling

Zwischen

Local secret scanning and static analysis for solo builders, small teams, and people working with coding agents. It runs before code leaves the machine through a Git push.

I added parallel checks, normalized and deduplicated findings, and Git-hook integration around Gitleaks and Semgrep.

Additional work

I also build software for my own day-to-day workflows.

Walnut Home

I built the SwiftUI client and integration backend, connecting home controls and camera history in one application.

Permanent Clipboard History

I built the native capture and search app, separating permanent entry files from the temporary indexes that make them fast to find.

Second Brain

I built the capture and validation workflow, plus a read-only reader that searches a committed snapshot of the knowledge base.

These are personal projects. My work at Solidigm stays in private company repositories.
