Independent researcher and engineer working at the intersection of cryptography, digital identity, trust protocols, and distributed systems. I focus on practical mechanisms for verifiable trust distribution, secure key management, and identity protocols.
- Decentralized trust systems โ the KERI Suite: KERI, ACDC, CESR, and relatives
- Cryptographic protocol design โ HPKE, Noise, PKI interoperability
- Post-quantum transition โ to-PQC-or-not-to-PQC
Maintainer and contributor in the Human Colossus Foundation ecosystem: OCA, DKMS (Rust implementation of KERI protocol).
Drone ID interoperability (DIDI) and verifiable trust primitives for UAVs.
If your project touches cryptography, distributed trust, or post-quantum migration โ
I'm open to collaboration, reviews, or short-term research contributions.
