OFF THE MAIN THREAD
Side
Experiments
Everything here was built for real, but none of it is clinical work. Hardware, iPhone apps, browser vision, agent skills, and one piece of executable science fiction. It lives on its own page so the radiotherapy work stays legible.
Builds & prototypes
Things I made on the side
Each one has code, build files, or a running demo, and a note on what it does not prove.
SCIENCE FICTION SYSTEMSLIVE SIMULATION
Executable science fiction · Distributed systems
RUIN // HELIOS
Mission control for a star-sized distributed system. A deterministic browser simulation lets an operator stress 10,000 autonomous solar collectors with communication loss, thermal limits, debris, demand spikes, and cascading failures.
01HACKATHON BUILD
Local AI · Smart glasses · AWS Strands
LifeLens
I built a consent-first smart-glasses agent that interprets selected moments on the phone, minimizes what leaves the device, and proposes one explainable next action without silently taking it.
02OPEN SOURCE
Agent skills · Active recall
Learn My Code
AI wrote the code. Now make it yours. A Claude Code and Codex skill that turns a real Git diff into one-question-at-a-time lessons and code-grounded project interview practice.
03DEMO
Local vision · Resale
BenchVision Suite
SellShot and PackCheck analyze product-photo quality and packaging changes entirely inside the browser, without uploading images to a server.
04BUILD FILES
Hardware · Resale
ResaleDock
A repeatable eight-angle photography turntable for secondhand products, including CAD, STL files, ESP32 firmware, iPhone control, and a complete BOM.
05DESIGN STUDY
Plant tech · Fabrication
SproutCam
A propagation cabinet that records rooting and acclimation. The HOME 12 and PRO 48 studies include build guides, costing, CAD, and explicit safety boundaries.
iPhone apps
Small tools for physical work
SwiftUI applications built around cameras, QR codes, Bluetooth devices, labels, and local records.
APP STORE BUILD UPLOADEDSwiftUI · Vision OCR · Camera
MoveProof
A local-first move-in and move-out evidence app. It reads room names from a floor plan, guides both parties through the same nine views, compares matched captures, records signatures, and exports a PDF report.
- Landlord and tenant records kept separate
- Matching-view comparison with timestamp and SHA-256 index
- Consent-aware ads and a one-time remove-ads purchase

WORKING PROTOTYPESwiftUI · Local-first operations
ReturnProof
An iPhone inventory, QR checkout, and return-inspection app for small rental operations. It records kit components and condition photos, prints AirPrint or ZPL labels, and stores data locally.
- QR deep links and five explicit asset states
- Checkout and return condition records
- Ad-supported mode and one-time remove-ads purchase

CONTROLLER PROTOTYPESwift · BLE · Camera
ResaleDock Controller
An iPhone controller that coordinates an ESP32 turntable, lighting, homing, weight readout, and an eight-angle product photography sequence.
- Bluetooth Low Energy command protocol
- Camera capture coordination
- Separately testable pure Swift core
