01 · Field Notes
I’m a rising junior studying finance and computer science at Ohio State — though next year you’ll find me at Oxford, reading as a visiting student at Mansfield College. I grew up in Avon, just outside Cleveland. I build things at the intersection of AI, fintech, and systems; right now that mostly means Axiom, the LLM security company I co-founded and run. Most of what I work on comes down to giving people more leverage through automation and smart tooling.
I’ve basically been building since I was a kid. My first attempt at making money was dropshipping at fourteen. It didn’t go anywhere, but it pushed me into trying everything I could get my hands on: trading, copywriting, small online projects. At sixteen I co-founded Adhra, a marketing agency I built with a friend, and exited my share at eighteen.
I got into tech through Roblox. In 2023, I tested for Anime Adventures, which pulled me into how software actually works behind the scenes. From there I learned to build, and since then I’ve shipped products across LLM security, automation tools, and consumer apps. I like problems that sit between product and engineering and actually require solving.
Outside of work I train MMA, play tennis and soccer, and dive into books and chess whenever I can. I’m also a huge Real Madrid fan.
“I am a man of fortune, and I must seek my fortune.”
That’s the path so far. I’m just trying to build things worth talking about.
