I build production systems where security, AI, and public service intersect — from library platforms that staff depend on daily to cryptographic protocols and Scripture apps that matter.

Recommended projects to explore my work:

1. 🔐 Meow Decoder (repo) — Secure optical air-gap file transfer via animated QR-code GIFs. AES-256-GCM + Argon2id + ML-KEM-1024 + fountain codes. Explicit threat model, fail-closed design.

2. 🧪 Crypto Lab (repo) — 12 browser-based cryptography demos spanning deniable encryption, post-quantum, zero-knowledge proofs, FHE, and more. Real primitives. No backends. Just the math.

3. ✝️ Scripture Journey (repo) — A Christ-centered PWA mapping 200+ Old Testament prophecies to their New Testament fulfillments.

4. 🤖 AI Conversation Platform (repo) — Multi-agent LLM orchestration with circuit breakers, observability, and 90%+ test coverage.

By day I'm a systems analyst (IT Librarian) behind production systems a public library depends on — patron registration, access control, ILS integrations, and automated workflows that staff and patrons use without thinking about them, because they just work.

Outside work I'm building air-gapped crypto tools, multi-agent AI platforms, and Scripture apps that matter to me personally. Scripture Journey and Hide in Heart aren't side projects — they're the same discipline applied to something eternal.

The cryptography work isn't a hobby track separate from my library career — it's the foundation underneath it. Patron data is sensitive by nature. I built Crypto Lab, Shadow Vault, Meow Decoder, and the rest because I wanted to understand AEAD encryption, key derivation, deniable containers, and post-quantum primitives at the implementation level — not just call a library and hope it works. Every production system I ship reflects that: AES-256-GCM encrypted uploads, HMAC-validated webhooks, fail-closed parsing, explicit threat models. The demos exist so the discipline shows.

I use AI as a real development partner — faster without cutting corners on architecture or correctness.

My Christian faith is the throughline. Clarity, integrity, and building things worth depending on.

• Security Engineering & Applied Cryptography — Protocol design, AEAD encryption, post-quantum primitives, threat modeling, and fail-safe architectures
• AI Systems & Multi-Agent Orchestration — Coordinating multiple LLMs for reasoning, comparison, and collaborative problem-solving
• Library Systems Integration — Connecting ILS platforms, access control, reservations, and patron workflows
• Data Pipelines & Analytics — Turning raw public-sector data into actionable insights
• Human-Centered Design — Prioritizing reliability, accessibility, and real-world usefulness

A research tool for secure data transfer across air gaps using animated QR code frames. The phone acts only as an untrusted optical channel — all cryptographic operations stay on the secure endpoints. Built as a tribute to my Navy-veteran father.

Key Features

• AES-256-GCM with Argon2id key derivation
• ML-KEM-1024 post-quantum hybrid keys
• Fountain codes for reliable optical transmission
• Explicit, versioned byte-level protocol specification
• Fail-closed parsing with tamper detection

Status: Actively hardening — not yet externally audited. All cryptographic primitives are standard, publicly vetted algorithms. Security depends on correct implementation.
