understand
Understand the person’s position inside a system: what affects them, what they can see, and where their agency is constrained.

AI systems architect and product engineer building stateful applications, agent workflows, structured memory, and production MVPs.
Explore the system ↓THE POSITION
I do not just add AI to interfaces. I design the state, tools, memory, and decisions that make the product work.
SELECTED SYSTEM / FOAAP
A venture operating system that actually remembers.
Founder context gets scattered across chats, documents, and tools. FOAAP turns it into durable venture state, resolves contradictions, and exposes one high-leverage action.

THE THESIS
Amplifying your cognitive repertoire through research and synthesis.
I build systems that help people investigate unfamiliar problems, connect evidence across domains, and turn that synthesis into decisions they can revisit.

Trace every claim to its source.
I keep model extractions as candidates. In anchorQuotes, a quote must occur exactly once in the original text before the validator accepts its source span. Missing or ambiguous evidence produces an explicit error.
The model supplies the quote. Deterministic code derives its position.
An exact match establishes provenance; it does not establish that the claim is true.

Put ownership in the database.
For requests subject to RLS, notification settings belong to the signed-in user. USING checks which existing rows they can access; WITH CHECK constrains the values they can write. The migration enables RLS before defining the policy.
Authorization is enforced by Postgres, beyond what the interface chooses to show.
Service-role access bypasses RLS and must stay on the server. This excerpt documents the migration, not a live database audit.

Make stale writes explicit.
A row lock serializes updates to an existing model. The caller supplies a base version; a stale save returns a conflict and the current server state so the application can reconcile it.
Concurrency is part of the persistence contract.
The force-save path (p_base = -1) is explicit. Public, anonymous and authenticated roles are denied direct execution of this RPC.

THE BUILDER
I seek difficult systems, not safe tasks.
I deliberately compound intellectual, technical, physical, social, and economic capacity. The point is greater agency: the ability to understand difficult systems, act under uncertainty, and build useful things.
I am especially drawn to problems where software meets real operations, institutions, and consequential users.
