Projects
Tools I build, ideas I explore, and resources I share. My work spans creative desktop applications, email infrastructure, AI agents, and cloud architecture.
Featured projects
Photo·AIrt
Turn photographs into art. A native Rust desktop studio for Linux, Windows, and macOS, combining image-processing algorithms with optional AI art direction and repainting through the Claude Code and Codex CLIs.
Explore ten built-in styles, tune each artwork, compare it with the original, and export at full resolution. Plug-in styles extend the studio, while the AI Art Director and Master Painter can collaborate on a new interpretation of your photo.
The same native studio across three operating systems.

IMAP Migration Tools
Move and protect large email archives. A Python toolkit for migrating, backing up, restoring, counting, and comparing mail across IMAP servers, built for operations that need to resume reliably.
Use the command line, terminal interface, or desktop GUI. The tools support password and OAuth2 authentication, incremental operations, Gmail labels, IMAP flags, and local email-file backups.

Everything Is Awesome
A little more optimism in your news feed. An application that finds real news stories, uses AI to assess sentiment and positivity, and presents uplifting articles on the web and mobile.
The project brings together a React web application and a React Native / Expo mobile experience, with sharing and touch-friendly story navigation.

DotNet AI Chess
Watch AI agents play and communicate. A distributed chess experiment with a cross-platform Avalonia interface, where Gemini or Grok agents exchange moves through the Agent2Agent (A2A) protocol.
Follow the game alongside the messages between agents. A companion training pipeline explores chess-data preparation and model fine-tuning with Azure AI Foundry.
