Engineering
I'm CTO at TODAQ where we're building industrial asset management systems that leverage some nifty new cryptographic data structures to avoid the expense and constraints of global consensus, called TODA. This lets us do things like build digital assets that work in high-latency orbits (or oceans, or certain operational environments), and support micropayments. We've released an early open-source implementation. Apparently I inspired some of the work on arXiv:2208.13617 [cs.DC].
Speaking and Writing
Sometimes I write or contribute to papers/conferences, and am a member of the Neural Systems Lab within Biomedical Engineering at the University of Toronto.
