I'm a Member of Technical Staff at the San Francisco Compute Company.
My interests sit at the intersection of mathematics, computer science, and philosophy. I grew up off-the-grid in a Tibetan Buddhist community for the first 13 years, the lineage was the Nyingma school of thought.
Previously:
- Founding Engineer at Pluto (applied cryptography, web proofs),
- Founding Research Engineer at Primitive (DeFi protocol design, Arbiter).
Some things I've done:
- Presented constant function market makers at DARPA as a DARPA Riser
- Contributed to algebraic hash function security
- Reduced TLS session proof generation from 30 minutes to 30 seconds at Pluto
- Designed and demostrated attack vectors on VPNs with Tropical Algebra
