Work

Phoenix Traffic Intelligence

Live freeway-network twin for Phoenix. AZ-511 and public traffic evidence, used to explore how disruptions persist, spread, and recover. Decision support — not certified speeds or dispatch.

QEV

Local-first encrypted vaults. XChaCha20-Poly1305 + Argon2id, CLI, web, and desktop. QAL posts a commitment on Solana devnet so a sealed record cannot be quietly swapped.

Oort & Flows

One Qira account for identity, connections, and billing. Flows turns a goal into structured AI execution with verification, evidence, and recovery. SSO and bring-your-own-key.
