Project Portfolio

Categorized software, security, and business builds.

1. Finance & Trading Apps

PRAXIS

[IN PROGRESS]

An AI guide and coach for forex and crypto traders, built as an institutional-grade intelligence platform underneath β€” seven purpose-built engines (execution analysis, risk management, behavioral coaching, market sentiment, and more) behind an event-sourced Rust core and a TypeScript API gateway. The security boundary is enforced by the database itself: two Postgres schemas with separate roles mean even a compromised API layer cannot write into the intelligence data. Architecture and schema are fully specified and validated against a live Postgres instance; the engines and UI are being built out now.

MiddleMan

[IN PROGRESS]

My biggest and most personal project β€” a non-custodial neo-bank, gift card liquidation engine, and trading terminal, all running inside WhatsApp with a real-time Vue 3 admin dashboard behind it. AI only extracts intent from natural language, including Nigerian Pidgin; it never touches a balance or executes a transfer directly β€” every financial state change is a compile-time-verified Rust query. Wallet keys across EVM, Solana, Tron, and TON are AES-256-GCM encrypted and held in RAM only for the millisecond it takes to sign, then scrubbed. TypeScript (Baileys) drives the WhatsApp gateway and APIs; a pure Rust backend (Axum/Tokio) handles everything that touches money.

2. Blockchain & Web3

ZeroClaw: Token Risk Check

A read-only WebAssembly plugin for the ZeroClaw AI agent runtime that screens Solana SPL Token and Token-2022 mint addresses before an agent trades them β€” flagging freeze authority, holder concentration, and dangerous extensions with a RED/AMBER/GREEN score. Built against an explicit threat model: fail-closed address validation and strict output schemas so a compromised agent can't be tricked into acting on malicious input, with zero private-key custody. Originally built for a Superteam Earn bounty.

Smartest-Fingers

[IN PROGRESS]

A Web3 gaming platform, early in development.

Escrowl

[LIVE ON DEVNET]

Milestone-based, dispute-aware SPL escrow on Solana. Buyer funds a PDA vault, seller delivers per-milestone, and an arbiter resolves disputes with exact splits β€” trust without intermediaries holding keys. Anchor program live on devnet with a Next.js frontend, backed by a 12-invariant threat model, adversarial and LiteSVM fuzz suites, and a full self-audit battery. Built for the Colosseum Crypto World's Fair + Adevar Labs pre-audit track.

3. Systems Programming & Security

Dhar

[IN PROGRESS]

A general-purpose systems programming language, bootstrapped from nothing. Stage 0 (Forge of Dhar) is a dependency-free compiler written entirely in x86_64 NASM assembly, targeting Linux, Windows, and WASI directly. Stage 1 (Honing Dhar) is self-hosted β€” its own compiler is written in Dhar β€” and is where the type system, structs, and pointer/borrow semantics are being built out now.

LUNA-OS

[IN PROGRESS]

A bare-metal x86 operating system built from scratch in C, C++, and Assembly β€” not a Linux derivative. Designed to run on closed, private networks with Luna-AI, an embedded AI component, built in from the start.

View on GitHub →

SoloScan Security Suite

A cybersecurity tool for Windows, Linux, and Android. It helps find network vulnerabilities, monitor traffic, and gather data on potential threats.

AeroPulse-NG

[BOLTE PRODUCT]

Tactical radar & airspace surveillance engine β€” a BOLTE product. Air-gapped, offline-first, NCAA/ICAO-aligned: turns commodity SDRs and a standard PC into an ATC/military surveillance workstation. ADS-B/Mode S + ACARS ingestion, 6-state Kalman tracking, R*-tree STCA conflict detection, and triple-source weather fusion with defence overlays (emergency squawks, dark-target detection, geofencing, intercept solver). Rust core + Tauri dual-window desktop, Python sidecar recorder, React radar canvas.

4. Business & Education Platforms

Cabinet-otg

[IN PROGRESS]

An automated, private digital file management and storage application utilizing strict hierarchical access control protocols, scalable on AWS.

View on GitHub →

Boom

[IN PROGRESS]

A ride-hailing, logistics, and marketplace super-app. Shop owners list their products on the platform; users browse, purchase, and book delivery for what they bought, all in one place. Currently in the conceptual and planning phase.

5. Data Analysis & Statistics

FUHSI Research Analytics

[COMPLETED]

Four full survey-analytics studies for real research clients (1,471 respondents total), each run as a reproducible five-phase Python pipeline β€” raw data → cleaning & scoring → statistics (chi-square, Kruskal-Wallis, Bonferroni pairwise, logistic regression, Cronbach's α/KR-20) → figures → APA-style DOCX report + Excel workbook. Covered: malaria prevention KAP (N=321), substance abuse (N=395), internet access & self-directed learning (N=379), menstrual irregularities KAP (N=376).

Research Analytics Dashboard

[COMPLETED]

An interactive dashboard presenting all four studies with live Chart.js visualisations built from the verified result tables β€” knowledge–practice gaps, prevalence cascades, declining readiness profiles, and care-seeking funnels β€” with the smart-insight read for each study.
