Her critical thinking skills, distinguished ethical standards and leadership qualities are second to none. Her impeccable design work earned her prestigious recognitions at the paper, and she executed her assignments with ease independently [and] as part of a team.

Cassandra H. Corpus Christi Caller-Times

I do think she's a genius; probably as smart as anyone I know.

Greg C. BTD

She has excelled in all areas related to news design from the beginning. It’s common for lead designers to get overwhelmed when starting out, but she has handled the pressure with a calm and centered mindset.

About Me

A little history

As synthetic media and deepfakes erode traditional trust, provenance has become the new root of truth. I design and implement cryptographic systems that let organizations and individuals irrefutably prove data origin, custody, and integrity. By uniting decentralized infrastructure with hardened compliance standards, I’m helping build the verifiable information ecosystem we should have had by now.
