I'm a high-school founder who turns overlooked problems into shipped products, from a voice-first menu reader for blind diners to a community tribute flying a hundred flags.
Two products I care about, one technical, one human. Both shipped, both for real people.
01, flagship product
MenuVoice
A voice-first web app that lets blind and low-vision people read any restaurant menu, without sighted help.
Printed menus and most restaurant sites are invisible to a screen reader. MenuVoice solves it three ways: scan a paper menu with the camera, pull one off the web by name, or just talk to it. Built on GPT-4 Vision, Whisper, and a deeply considered VoiceOver accessibility layer.

02, community impact
Field of Heroes
For the Rotary Club of Asbury Park's America 250 tribute, I helped build the digital side of Field of Heroes, one hundred American flags rising along Sunset Lake, each honoring a real person.
Every $50 flag honors a veteran, first responder, teacher, or local hero, carrying their name and a commemorative badge mailed home to the family after the Fourth of July. I built the Find Your Flag finder so any visitor can locate their hero among the hundred.

service · EMS cadet
On the rescue squad
A BLS-certified EMS cadet riding with my local rescue squad, real calls, real stakes, and the calm-under-pressure that comes from showing up for people on their worst day.

Coaching 30+ gymnasts
Designed custom drills and built the confidence and mental resilience that moved athletes up competitive levels, the same teaching instinct that drives everything I build.
A little about me
I'm happiest when an idea becomes something real that someone can actually use.
When I'm not building, I'm reading, on a mountain skiing, following the markets, or riding with my rescue squad as an EMS cadet. I think in both Russian and English, I like hard problems, and I believe the best technology is the kind that quietly includes the people everyone else forgot.
