Field Notes

Thoughts from research, travel, and building.

Spring 2026

Research for AI Integration

95% of AI pilots failed to deliver value to their organizations.

Strongly attributed to a lack of understanding to the technology, I saw an opportunity to emphasize the value of human collaboration.

College in the Keeweenaw

Academic Nomad

Attending university in the UP demands adaptability with its harsh winters, but I don't regret my decision in the slightest.

There is something to be learned in the tenacity of those who persevere.

Started With Accounting

Success['adaptability']

I enrolled into college for accounting—a stable career. Yet still, I was drawn to technology and its capacity for complex Systems.

This intuitive move has rewarded me with greater tolerance for failure and increased capacity for success.

Effective Agentic Use for Cyber Governance

A research study into effective and secure LLM implementation for cybersecurity applications—while emphasizing the value of human collaboration—using Amazon S3, Microsoft's MCP, and customized RAG workflow.

The application itself seeks to create reports aligning organizational policies to code and their dependencies, websites, and other documents for review and sharing by human auditors and governance workers. The project targets the cost-savings and time-savings factors of work primarily in financial and technological industries.

Community-based Housing Feedback Platform

Designed to service the community, there was seen a community need to fill with HuskyRentLens, developed by members of the student body.

The platform recognizes the importance of student housing for Michigan Technological University pupils and the local economy—and, that this essential feedback enables the good reputation of these properties and the campus to persist.
