Products & Ventures: Founding-Engineer Builds

The flagship venture I co-founded

Portium

The clearest proof of what I do: a live, shipping Zero-Trust access platform for libraries, hospitals, and research institutions, which I co-founded and engineered. The architecture, the build, and a security bar independently audited by KPMG to SOC 2 Type II.
