About

Building at the intersection of AI and cybersecurity.

I recently graduated summa cum laude with a B.S. in Computer Science from the University of Oklahoma. This fall, I will begin an M.S. in Cybersecurity Engineering at Auburn University. War Eagle!

My work explores how intelligent systems can be evaluated, secured, and safely deployed within complex technical environments, with interests spanning machine learning security, autonomous systems, and resilient cyber infrastructure, especially as these systems become increasingly embedded in everyday life.

Graduate focus
AI security, reverse engineering, and the reliability of increasingly autonomous systems.
Questions I chase
How do AI systems fail, how can we evaluate them, and what makes them trustworthy in practice?
What I build toward
Secure, understandable tools for inspecting and integrating AI systems in everyday life.

Beyond the Lab

Leadership, service, and creative work

The same habits that matter in technical work show up in the places where I learned to lead: preparation, trust, communication, and care for the people beside me.
