I'm an engineer at Palantir Technologies. I previously served in the US Navy (1810 Cryptologic Warfare), where I worked on computer network operations and tactical maritime SIGINT. I graduated from the US Naval Academy and Stanford GSB. Hobbies include running ultras, reading good novels, and thinking about encryption. I'm online at Substack, LinkedIn, GitHub, and Goodreads.
