I founded ChainLabs in 2021 and have been building Solana security tooling under it ever since, starting with RugGuard, a Chrome extension that checks tokens for rug-pull risk before you trade them, and a small forensic toolkit for tracing transactions after the fact.

More recently I've been the founding engineer on Coldstar, which turns a regular USB drive into a wallet that never touches the internet. Transactions get built and signed offline. The private key only ever exists in locked memory for as long as signing takes, then it's wiped. No secure element, no proprietary hardware. Just a drive you could throw away afterward and lose nothing. Most of what I work on comes back to the same question: what happens if someone tries to attack this?

Outside of that, I tutor GCSE Computer Science students and help non-technical founders get their first version of something out the door without shooting themselves in the foot on security.
