👋 Hi there!

I hope you find value in some of my many tools created with AI collaboration such as the Photo Album, or Personal Finance tool.

I’m building Walking with Iris, a quiet, bias-aware corner of the internet where people can slow down, examine what they’re reading, and think more clearly.

Iris is a free, ad-free AI-powered guide that helps you spot persuasive tricks, logical fallacies, and subtle bias in everyday content, from news to social media to email. The goal isn’t to tell you what to believe… just to help you notice what’s shaping your beliefs.

Alongside the analysis tools, I’m creating small, themed games, classics reimagined that double as playful drills for focus, pattern recognition, and decision-making. They’re built with a mix of human craft and AI assistance: part creative partner, part demo of what thoughtful human–AI collaboration can be.

If Iris, or any of these projects helped you, consider buying a coffee to keep the work going. Your support covers hosting, development, content creation, and future tools (like the Iris toolset and interactive learning games).

I believe tools like this should remain independent, user-driven, and grounded in trust, not monetized by clicks.

Thanks for thinking (and playing) with me. 💜
