pill

solo — design, build, ship

a productivity app for macos. the gap between having a thought and it being handled should be one keystroke, not five apps. pill sits over whatever you are already doing, takes the thought, and routes it — no context switch, no window management, nothing to file later.

credigle

founder

generative engine optimization. search stopped being a list of links — it is now an answer generated inside a model, and most companies have no idea how they appear in it. credigle measures how you show up across the major models, tracks it over time, and tells you exactly what to change.

maze-solving robot

mechatronics — hardware + firmware

an autonomous line-following and maze-solving robot built for the national engineering robotics competition. ir sensor array, a control loop tuned by hand, and a flood-fill maze solver — all written in embedded c on an atmel micro with no libraries to hide behind. it is where i learned that a system either works in the real world or it does not.

ocr + nlp content engine

founder & ceo, classnotes

the content problem at classnotes was unsolvable by hand — millions of students, a national curriculum, and a content team of a few people. so i built a pipeline that ingested textbook scans and turned them into structured, reviewable learning material automatically. it took content production from a bottleneck to a background process.
