🔐 Fully-Developed Projects
👥 Groups App
Privacy-preserving app to manage your actual social network. Adds a social engagement layer to any websites, while your contacts stay on your phone.
📦 Qbix Platform
Open-source social operating system for the Web, enabling anyone to host their own community portal on any server of their choice.
🎭 Community Portals
Event and community platforms for a growing number of content creators and thought leaders. Here are some examples
💻 Qbix Webserver
Can handle 100x more traffic than nginx + php-fpm. Built in pure PHP, handles requests, websockets, rooms, can power distributed systems.
📦 Safebox
95% cheaper, safer solution for agentic AI workloads using open-weight models. Sealed pristine environment with hardware attestation for trustworthy code execution.
🤖 Safebots
Proactive agentic AI that facilitates collaboration and automation inside organizations and enterprises. Greatly simplifies compliance with privacy regulations.
💾 Safecloud
Distributed, encrypted storage cloud for streaming. Privacy-preserving data coordination across untrusted nodes.
🔤 U Language
Revolutionary programming language that prevents whole classes of bugs, designed for safe programming by both humans and AI agents. Transpile PHP, JS, Python to safe, native C and WASM for 10x speedup.
✍️ OpenClaiming Protocol
Cross-chain, cross-domain claims protocol using RFC 8785 canonicalization and EIP-712 encoding. Full reference implementations in JS, PHP, Solidity.
☁️ Intercoin
Multi-chain payment protocol deployed across 8+ EVM mainnets. Economic coordination for distributed networks.
🌐 Intercloud
Eventual consistency for decentralized economies via chilling-effect consensus. For DISC 2026.
⚖️ Rational.app
Claims, evidence, and structured debate with per-claim discussion threads and argument trees.
🎵 Early Accomplishments
🎹 Concert Pianist
Starting at age 7, studied piano in Juilliard, and played concerts in Carnegie Hall.
→ Mainstream TV Coverage & performances
🎓 Teaching
👨🏫 Professor, IE University — New York
Teaching artificial intelligence — LLMs, neural network history, practical applications, and the theory underneath.
📸 Screenshots & Photos
Built on Qbix5M+ downloads across 100+ countries, zero marketing spend. Powers the Groups and Calendars apps, the latter featured in BBC and ArsTechnica. Data via AppFigures.
Decentralization Before It Was CoolPhilosophy shaped by conversations on surveillance and privacy, web3 and decentralization, and pioneers like Tim Berners-Lee. Encrypted, distributed systems are not idealistic—they are necessary.
