What I'm Building Now
Security Engineer. Inventor. Builder.
I build things that protect people. My focus is the gap between software security and hardware reality — the window where your device is powered on but no software is running to defend it.
I invented BlueGuard — the first USB device that provides hardware-level Bluetooth attack prevention before the operating system loads. Three provisional patents filed with the USPTO. 53 claims covering hardware, software, and enterprise deployment.
Before BlueGuard, I spent years building open-source security tools, privacy-first infrastructure, and self-hosted alternatives to Big Tech services. 45+ public repositories on GitHub spanning security dashboards, encrypted communication bridges, VPN servers, secure boot media, and AI-powered security automation.
I believe security should be invisible, hardware-enforced, and user-controlled. No cloud dependency. No data collection. No trust required.
Commitment to Security
Hardware-First
Software can be bypassed, delayed, or disabled. Hardware protection is always on — from the first electron to the last byte.
Privacy by Design
Zero telemetry. Zero cloud dependency. No accounts required. Your security data never leaves your device.
Open Source DNA
45+ public repos. Security through transparency, not obscurity. Every tool I build, I use — and I share.
Pre-Boot Protection
Scanning active in 500ms — before your OS loads, before drivers initialize, before any software can respond.
Cryptographic Root of Trust
ATECC608A secure element with ECDSA verification. Signed firmware. Write-once key slots. Anti-rollback protection.
Self-Hosted Everything
From DNS to email to monitoring — if it can be self-hosted, I run it myself. I practice what I preach.
Building Security From the Ground Up
- Invented patent-pending USB security device addressing Bluetooth vulnerabilities affecting 5.6B+ devices
- Filed 3 provisional patents (53 claims) with USPTO — hardware device, software method, enterprise platform
- Designed hardware architecture: STM32F405 + nRF52840 BLE SoC + ATECC608A secure element
- Built companion iOS app in SwiftUI — BLE scanning, threat detection, security scoring, device whitelisting
- Architected production infrastructure: Cloudflare, Docker, Traefik, Authelia SSO, Prometheus/Grafana
- Built linux-security-dashboard — real-time security monitoring with Python/FastAPI
- Created kali-security-mcp — AI-powered security automation via Model Context Protocol
- Developed claude-code-server — production-grade FastAPI server for AI-assisted code analysis
- Built de-googled-bluebubbles-server — privacy-respecting iMessage bridge without Google dependencies
- Created usb-drive-wiper-iso — bootable secure data destruction media
- Built fastmail-tui — privacy-focused terminal email client with AI enhancement
- Developed github-repo-manager — desktop app for bulk repo management
- Published 45+ open source repositories spanning security, privacy, and infrastructure
- Manage Proxmox VE virtualization cluster with automated provisioning
- Run TrueNAS storage with ZFS for enterprise-grade data integrity
- Operate 17+ Docker containers: Traefik, Authelia, Grafana, Prometheus, WireGuard, and more
- Created automated SSL certificate generation and management tooling
- Developed cross-platform workspace automation for multi-OS environments
Before Cybersecurity
Before pivoting to cybersecurity, I spent over 12 years as a Line Producer in entertainment — managing multi-million-dollar budgets, coordinating 150+ person crews, and delivering high-stakes projects for the world's biggest brands. The operational discipline, risk management instincts, and leadership skills I built on set are the same ones I bring to building BlueGuard.
