Let's Talk

I'm open to thoughtful conversations, collaboration, and roles that sit at the intersection of software, systems, and institutional design. If you've read my work or see clear overlap with something you're building or exploring, I'm glad to connect.

Get in Touch

You can reach me by email or connect on LinkedIn. I'm particularly interested in work that involves protocol design, front-end systems as interfaces to complex infrastructure, or applying structured models to real-world institutional problems.

The Approach

Scott Jellen is an independent researcher working at the intersection of protocol design, rights modeling, and interoperability across digital and public systems. His work includes standards-oriented specifications, reference models, and published whitepapers that examine how incentives, governance, and infrastructure can be represented clearly and designed to scale. He is the founder of the Jellen Protocol Lab, which serves as the emerging home for this research. Flagship work includes the Universal Sports Graph (USG), a protocol-based framework spanning RFC-style specifications and a versioned reference registry.
