About

Automation and AI are changing how we build, but the need for foundational security remains. I founded trustedstack.ai to bridge that gap.

I operate end-to-end to help teams scale ambitious products with absolute confidence. My focus is turning raw innovation into enterprise-grade reality. I design resilient architectures, data pipelines, and robust authorization layers that satisfy strict compliance without slowing developers down.

Off the clock, I'm usually crafting tangible products or thinking about how to solve complex geopolitical issues.

Projects

TrustedStack.ai

Business Applications Governance — security and compliance for apps built with low-code/no-code, automation, and AI.

TrustedStack helps CIO, CSO, GRC, CTO, and Ops teams discover and govern their stacks: continuous discovery of building blocks, contextual policies, and cross-team collaboration so SecOps can enforce without blocking. It covers deep tool and vendor intel, AI governance, and agile policies; SOC 2 Type II certified.

Interests

Analog and Digital Synthesis

Building and patching analog and digital synths. I like the constraints of voltage, the tangibility of knobs and cables, and the overlap between sound design and systems thinking.

Mechanical Keyboards

Custom boards, switch mods, and layout experiments. The keyboard is the interface I touch most; making it tactile and precise is both craft and daily infrastructure.

Geopolitics and Systems Thinking

How states, institutions, and networks interact at scale. I read and follow developments in energy, supply chains, and governance — less prediction, more pattern recognition.

Long-form Journalism

Deep reporting, narrative non-fiction, and investigative work. I value stories that take time to build context and resist simple headlines.
