ABOUT THE PROJECT

From scattered signals to a decision-ready view.

Omnigaze brings market signals, emerging themes, and supporting evidence into one focused workspace. It is designed for people who need to scan quickly, investigate deeply, and leave with a clearer point of view.

  • Surfaces market movement and emerging technology themes.
  • Organizes evidence into a calmer, more navigable research experience.
  • Pairs GenAI workflows with a deliberately product-led interface.

OpenAIOpen-MeteoBilingual Explore project

ABOUT THE PROJECT

Forecast the glow. Compare the sky.

Afterglow turns live weather and solar geometry into a calm, bilingual sunset forecast. Upload the real sky for a private in-browser color comparison, then optionally ask OpenAI to interpret the photo against the forecast.

  • Predicts a five-color palette with vibrancy, confidence, and an ideal local viewing window.
  • Compares seven upcoming evenings and highlights the strongest forecast.
  • Extracts uploaded sky colors privately in the browser for forecast comparison.
  • Adds an optional AI color story, atmospheric reading, forecast match, and photography tip.

ORBIT / LIFE OS LOCAL FIRST CLOUD OPTIONAL PERSONAL OS / MOBILE04 Orbit An iPhone-first, offline-first personal operating system connecting goals, milestones, tasks, habits, and reflections. Offline-firstiPhoneApproval-gated AI Explore project

ABOUT THE PROJECT

Make today serve the life you’re building.

Orbit is a calm, bilingual personal operating system that connects long-term direction to daily action. The iPhone app works offline first, syncs securely when enabled, and keeps AI recommendations as proposals until you approve them.

  • Connects goals, milestones, tasks, habits, and reflections through a navigable Life Graph.
  • Commits core actions to local SQLite before the interface reports success.
  • Offers optional, revision-based cloud sync through a Go and PostgreSQL backend.
  • Keeps AI approval-gated and excludes reflection content unless explicitly enabled for that request.

to open the chapter.

01 · FOUNDATION

Data science became a way of building.

I earned my B.S. in Data Science from the University of California, San Diego, building the analytical foundation that still shapes how I approach engineering: start with evidence, understand the system, and make the result useful.

The chapter where data became a way to understand—and build—the world around me.
