Teacher · Open Source Builder · Privacy Advocate
I build human-centered, privacy-aware tools at the intersection of AI, digital sovereignty, and education.
How can people use powerful AI systems without losing control over their data, identity, and workflows?
A local-first privacy gateway for LLM chat platforms.
Pilma anonymizes sensitive personal data before it reaches external AI systems and restores it locally afterward.
It explores privacy-preserving AI use through local control, reversible tokenization, and browser-integrated workflows.
A policy-driven identity layer for browsers.
Users can define personas and control which identity signals websites receive.
The project explores how digital identity can become configurable instead of implicitly extracted.
A modular, local-first teaching assistant built from real classroom practice.
ViccoBoard combines class organization, grading workflows, and exam support in a system designed around data sovereignty and practical school use.
A local-first prompt workflow extension.
Prompty helps manage and insert prompts across the web while keeping workflows structured, reusable, and user-controlled.
A retro-inspired game / interactive experiment.
Not everything has to be governance, privacy layers, and architecture diagrams.
Sometimes a project exists because atmosphere, play, and digital style matter too.

I’m especially interested in building personal control layers around powerful digital systems:
- control over data
- control over identity
- control over workflow
- control over context
I believe AI can become a powerful force for grassroots empowerment — but only if individuals remain able to understand, shape, and control the systems they use.
