Turning technology into services everyone can use. Solving real problems.
I came to building from an unlikely place — I was a music major. Years spent with sound made me notice the people who couldn't access the service systems most of us take for granted. That observation became WelcomEye, an accessibility-first company now backed by KOMIPO.
Right now I'm heads-down on ISEF — funny enough, I didn't even know what ISEF was when I started. Between the research and the company, I'm still building things people can actually use today.
I'll be honest: I'm an underdog. I grew up in a small town, far from the information networks of elite or specialized high schools. So I move with what I have — direct, unpolished, and determined to go further than the starting line suggested.
I don't start from logic — I start from what people actually say. While most founders begin with market research, I begin with one person's frustration. From there, I build services that reach into someone's today. Software and hardware for the daily lives of the Deaf, invisible watermarking against deepfake sexual crimes, and countless smaller attempts in between — all sparked by a single line: make something people want.
