I build systems
that think for themselves

Building at the edge of intelligent systems

Aerospace and autonomy enthusiast with a military background — I research and build intelligent systems for UAS, aviation safety, and human-machine teaming, and apply that same systems thinking to operational and strategic planning.

AI & Autonomy

Machine learning, autonomous systems, and intelligent behavior — from algorithmic design to real-world deployment in high-stakes operational environments.

Strategic, Operational & Tactical Planning

Planning across all echelons — from strategic force design and operational campaign architecture to tactical mission execution and adaptive decision-making under uncertainty.

ISR & EMS Operations

Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance; Electromagnetic Spectrum operations — sensor fusion, contested-environment ISR, and spectrum dominance in complex battlespaces.

Leadership & Human Factors

Leadership development, human factors engineering, war gaming, and the organizational psychology that determines how teams and systems perform under pressure.

Things I've built

Applications of AI, autonomous systems, and operational design.

Domain Maneuver

A war gaming platform for operational planning and strategic decision-making. Domain maneuver provides a dynamic environment for modeling contested operations, testing courses of action, and visualizing complex multi-domain battlespace interactions.
