— What I Do

Spectre —

Spectre solves the password dependency and reliability problem.

The standard secure approach to handling passwords and pass phrases is by generating these secrets randomly and storing them in a vault.
Unfortunately, this is an extremely dangerous and fragile approach which decouples you from your own identity. You've created a hardware or trust and availability dependency that sits between you and your services.

Spectre liberates you from this. There is no vault. No secret file or data. No externals to trust. Your identity is now your Spectre secret, a memorable phrase.
To access your services, the Spectre algorithm acts as a secure calculator, deriving your service-specific key from your identity on-demand.

You can literally lose everything you own as a result of a natural disaster, legal action or accident today; all you need to regain access to your services tomorrow is your Spectre secret and an offline Spectre calculator.

Acoustiguide Interactive —

At Acoustiguide we aim to redefine the experience of visiting cultural heritages.

Alongside a talented design team, I've worked to implement modern experiences to guide visitors of museums and cultural events through media rich and captivating interactive content.

The Bash Guide —

A quality guide through the most popular terminal shell.

Bash is an extremely popular terminal shell for a variety of *NIX and other systems. Unfortunately, its use and operation is often very unclear. Documentation, both commercial and on the web are often extremely lacking, confusing and misleading.

The Bash Guide aims to set the record straight while being user-friendly and approachable. It addresses the many features of the powerful shell in clear and direct language while inviting you to experiment using the countless examples and exercises.
