Privacy Membrane
Doximity DialerI built a call-forwarding shield so patients never see a clinician's real number. Care teams can return calls without leaking identity.

Safety architecture & override audits
Ship trustworthy high-stakes software.
I help teams ship software that can't quietly misbehave when the stakes are high. Let's make your safeguards unskippable together. Start a project →

PATTERN
Everyone knows the harm, but nothing ever actually stops
Controls exist on paper, but not in the product surface.
PATTERN
Safety or compliance exists as documentation, not leverage
Policies can be cited, but not enforced.
PATTERN
Leadership can override controls without leaving a trace
Risky actions are invisible—or unaccountable—in the audit log.
PATTERN
Appeals exist, but can’t change outcomes
Review paths route to polite dead ends instead of authority.
PATTERN
Good people are quietly compensating for broken design
Operators and frontline staff are absorbing the risk personally.
PATTERN
The system “works,” but only because someone keeps staying late
Fragility is masked by heroics instead of designed resilience.
RECON
Reading incident reports, escalations, and near-misses
Finding where the system lies under stress.
FIELDWORK
Interviewing operators, not just owners
Listening for where design is making policy impossible.
MAPS
Mapping override paths, exception flows, and dead ends
Tracing how constraint erodes when pressure rises.
SIGNALS
Identifying where harm is logged but not actionable
Surfacing where telemetry exists without levers.
OUTPUT
Constraint map as the first artifact
A clear view of what the system can do, shouldn’t do, and where design is carrying the risk.
TIME
2–3 weeks
Short, focused audit to expose where you rely on discretion or conscience over design.
INPUT
Workflows, incidents, operators
Access to the moments when your system bends or breaks.
OUTPUT
Failure modes, override paths, and design changes
A written map of what to bind, refuse, rollback, or pause—plus where to start.

Writing
[THEORY_NOTES]Non-Coercive Systems
A field guide for noticing coercion in everyday systems and swapping force with care-centered defaults that still meet complex needs.
READ →Temporal Solidarity
Explores how teams can share time more equitably by normalizing flexible pacing, mutual aid, and rhythms that honor disabled experiences.
READ →Proof-based Harm
Investigates how paperwork and evidence standards can retraumatize people—and how to design documentation that centers trust and healing.
