Work
PhotoVault: Copies a shoot to several drives and proves every copy is identical before the card is wiped.
Mimir: A private gateway to cloud AI: models only see what my own rules have cleared.
I lead engineering teams building the systems that connect people to large fleets of robots, where human–computer interaction, simulation and real-world operations meet.
