Practical Solutions for Modern Challenges
From software development to educational materials, my work is focused on creating practical solutions. I draw on my unique background in law, cybersecurity, and technology to address a range of modern challenges.
Educational Technology
Developing educational applications with a strong emphasis on user privacy. My goal is to create learning tools that prioritize education over data collection.
Legal Technology
Designing practical AI tools for the legal industry, informed by real-world legal experience. This approach ensures that the technology addresses the nuanced challenges of legal practice.
Security & Compliance
Applying an analytical mindset, honed in military intelligence, to understand and navigate cybersecurity principles and compliance requirements, particularly within regulated environments.
My Background
My journey with technology began at an early age, starting with fixing computers during my elementary school years. This interest grew through hands-on experience managing computer networks for family businesses. This practical foundation was further honed during my military service, where I developed a keen analytical approach to complex problems.
Transitioning to legal practice, I've found that my diverse background provides a unique perspective. It allows me to approach challenges with a comprehensive understanding of both technical systems and relevant frameworks.
This unique blend of experiences drives my work in developing practical solutions and exploring innovative approaches to various challenges.

I build tools to solve my own problems, then share them so others can benefit. Component Reason and HearthWords currently offer free access, and Barber Intelligence includes a separate free issue-spotting topics resource.
