I'm studying Management Information Systems at SJSU, where I'm building a pipeline between Silicon Valley technology and Washington's most pressing national security challenges. Peace follows deterrence. On the side, I play golf.

After reading this senior year of high school, I realized post-ASI all we'll have is the people around us. That guides everything I do now.

Experience

Work

Recruiting intern

Defense and manufacturing startup recruiting. Wanted to learn what top talent in this space looks like, and how to identify it. Trained on sourcing and screening for technical roles. Learned to apply that pattern recognition to myself. Company pivoted.

Team lead

Led the website design and build.

Campus

Founder/President

Bridging Silicon Valley technology with Washington's most pressing national security challenges.

Intern

Pile of metal to 0–60 in <4 seconds. Secured $30,000 in sponsorship in the first three weeks. Built the team website, sjsuformulasae.com.

External relations

Led sponsorships and media. Created sjsurobotics.org.

Fellow

Led the first-place team out of 18 in the capstone challenge, revitalizing Hacker Dojo. Won Outstanding Braven Fellow, one of three out of 80. The prize: hosting a real hackathon in summer 2026.

Projects

Right after OpenClaw released, I saw a massive cybersecurity risk in autonomous AI agents. Built a local proxy that intercepts and analyzes every agent request for prompt injection and anomalous behavior. Sub-100ms latency, zero config.

AI-native CRM built around SMS. The future of UI is meeting users where they are, not cognitively taxing apps or dashboards. Started at a frat rush event where I realized I'd forget everyone I met.

The dual-use bridge. An AI-powered platform mapping bidirectional technology transfer between public U.S. military tech and commercial technology. Stack Overflow for hardware.
