About
Independent Researcher & Protocol Designer
I'm an independent researcher focused on how digital systems can be made clearer, more interoperable, and easier to govern. My work centers on designing models, schemas, and protocol-oriented frameworks that describe how rights, access, and incentives move through modern infrastructure.
My background is in software and interface design, and I still approach problems through those lenses—treating systems as interfaces, tracing constraints, and mapping how small architectural choices compound into large institutional effects. I prototype when needed, but my core work sits at the intersection of systems thinking, protocol design, and structural analysis.
My current flagship project is the Universal Sports Graph (USG) a standards-grade framework for representing sports rights, entitlements, and interoperable distribution. Alongside USG, I maintain a broader research archive of whitepapers, briefs, and RFC-style documents that explore how different sectors behave under clearer incentives and better-defined structures.
