Hi, I’m Ryan.

I’ve spent the last five years working on distributed systems and applied cryptography, and am currently unemployed working on personal projects while I look for my next gig.

I’m currently mostly interested in RepE-style interpretability, model weight security, and verifiable inference. This blog is where I think out loud about what I’m learning and working on.

Apart from computers, I love cognitive science, language learning, analytic psychology, oil painting, and gardening.
