AI GOVERNANCE · SOLUTIONS ARCHITECTURE · FORWARD-DEPLOYED
AI is being deployed faster than anyone can govern it. I build systems in that gap, then sit in the room to explain them to the people who carry the risk. Technical depth, client-facing seat.
Governance frameworks are written for models. Almost none are written for the people and businesses those models describe. That gap is the work.
What I Do
Research, venture, and enterprise — three different lenses on the same question: protocols, capital, systems. At GOSH AI I build the misrepresentation risk taxonomy behind Sentinel and map the AI regulatory landscape into product strategy.

Three seats at the University of Arkansas, all pointed at the same thing: build the technical bench, then put it to work. Blockchain minor, a teaching seat in the Walton College, and a management role on a venture shipping out of the McMillon Innovation Studio.

Sui Foundation
Grant Recipient · Club ecosystem partnership
Technical background, business seat. Enterprise deployments, venture diligence, and running a 150-member club that landed a Sui Foundation grant.
Experience
Protocol research, venture capital, enterprise tech, and community leadership. Real roles, real output, since 2021.
The common thread is translation: taking something technical and making it land with the people who make decisions.
GOSH AI
Researching AI brand governance on Sentinel, GOSH's platform for monitoring how AI models represent brands. Built the misrepresentation risk taxonomy and scoring framework, and mapped the AI regulatory landscape into a competitive read on the AEO/GEO market.
SOLV Labs
Ran market and policy interviews that shaped distribution and investment decisions. Co-authored two peer-reviewed publications on agentic-AI risk; both remain unpublished externally, under NDA.
Red Beard Ventures
Published research across four portfolio projects, each over $50M AUM. Briefed leadership, ran events in London, New York, and Lisbon, and built a 260+ project database for pipeline analysis.
SiteTrax
Deployed automated OCR for container tracking across supply chain sites, helped design new server architecture that improved uptime, and installed the field hardware behind the traxa.io platform.
University of Arkansas Blockchain Club
Help lead the CryptoHogs. Grew membership from a handful of students to 150+, landed a Sui Foundation grant and partnership, and hosted workshops, panels, and a PizzaDAO pizza party.
A hand-tracked particle field in the browser. One hand, five gestures, 40,000 particles at ~110 FPS. Three.js and MediaPipe in a single file — no backend, no build step.
Student housing for the University of Arkansas, from the McMillon Innovation Studio where I manage the build. Kovie scrapes listings from four sources, de-duplicates and geocodes them, then scores them against a renter profile with a compatibility function. The feed is ranked, not just filtered. Expo and React Native on Supabase, with ingest and scoring as edge functions.

GOSH AI's platform for governing how AI models represent brands. I built the entire client-facing portal and Meridian, the chatbot monitoring widget, using my misrepresentation risk taxonomy. A conditional rule engine scores six factors into severity tiers, with radar fingerprints, alert routing, and detection-coverage caveats.
On-chain DAO governance system built with Solidity and Foundry. Smart contracts handle proposal creation, yes/no/abstain voting, quorum enforcement, and treasury-gated execution.
Research
Five regulatory regimes govern AI today — the EU AI Act, NYC Local Law 144, state-level legislation, the FTC, and the SEC — and a single gap runs through all of them. Each was written to protect consumers and workers from AI. None was built to protect a brand that an AI system describes, recommends, or omits incorrectly. This memo maps each regime by how it handles risk, where it applies, and which party it regulates, then locates the space that AI brand governance occupies.
In an era where AI capabilities are increasingly concentrated among a handful of tech giants, decentralized AI infrastructure presents a compelling investment opportunity that challenges this centralization paradigm. This concentration has presented multiple challenges for users seeking transparency and control over their data, with privacy concerns and algorithmic opacity becoming significant barriers to trust. The importance of permissionless intelligence — where AI systems can be accessed, modified, and improved without gatekeepers — has emerged as a critical counterbalance to these centralized models. This paper examines why DeAI infrastructure layers are positioned to capture more sustainable value than consumer-facing applications. Our findings suggest that while consumer DeAI applications face intense competition, scalability concerns and commoditization risks, infrastructure providers benefit from stronger network effects, more accessible barriers to entry, and more sustainable revenue models.
