Engineer / Operator / Founder

I work on privacy-first behavioral intelligence for aging in place — helping families care for their parents without cameras, cloud, or the surveillance economy.

Working on
Aging in Place

A longtime passion for smart homes turned personal when two family members were diagnosed with Parkinson's. That's what prompted Sigma Age.

We watch patterns, not people.

Sigma Age

Privacy-first behavioral intelligence for aging in place. Edge AI running locally — no cameras, no microphones, no wearables. Simple motion and contact sensors detect changes in daily routines and deliver insights to caregivers before small changes become emergencies.

Background

Engineer first.

A decade across regulated industries — aerospace, automotive, and critical infrastructure. Master of Engineering from the University of Tulsa. Lean Six Sigma. Compliance and reliability work that taught me how complex systems actually fail in the real world.

What I'm
working through.

i.

Build for the next regulation, not the last one.

The privacy laws coming for this industry haven't been written yet. Architectures designed around current compliance will be technical debt by 2028. The only durable bet is to build what regulators will eventually require — before they require it.

ii.

Privacy is the moat.

No cameras, no microphones, no cloud. The constraint isn't a limitation — it's the only architecture that will survive the next regulatory cycle and the trust collapse that comes with it.

iii.

Caregivers are the customer.

Every product in this space markets to the wrong person. The buyer is the adult child losing sleep — not the parent denying they need help. Reframe the entire funnel around that.

iv.

Patterns, not people.

The most useful signal isn't what someone did at 2:47 PM. It's whether today looks like the last thirty days. Behavioral drift is the earliest detectable form of decline — invisible to traditional medical alert systems.

"

The future of eldercare won't be won by the company with the most data. It will be won by the company you can trust with the data you can't take back.

What's on
the desk.

Now

Expanding pilot deployments

Two homes live since December 2025. Two more onboarding. Each one teaches the system something the last one didn't.

2026 H1

Utility patent

Converting the provisional to a full utility filing.

2026 H2

Co-founder search

Looking for the right operator-level partner. Equity-aligned. Complementary skills. Long-game thinking.

Ongoing

Reimbursement pathway

Working through the state-level Medicaid and aging-services landscape so families don't pay for this out of pocket.
