LuxiEdge
A deterministic, receipt-attested numerical compute engine for workloads where reproducibility, auditability, and energy efficiency matter more than peak throughput. Bit-exact on the f64 CPU gold path. SHA-256 receipt on every run. Track One non-provisional patent filed January 31, 2026.
f64 CPU risk pipeline
Kahan-compensated matmul, Welford covariance, deterministic normcdf/exp for Black–Scholes Greeks. Every evaluation produces a SHA-256 receipt over the canonical output vector.

Total Roofing Systems
I make a living running a real business in one of the most crowded contractor markets in Texas. That's not a footnote — it's operating discipline. Systems, automation, reputation, and customer delivery drive the machine. Forbes published an article about exactly this.
#1 in Fort Worth
Commercial and residential roofing across Dallas–Fort Worth. Competing in a reputation-sensitive market where execution is everything.
Automation & ops
Built sales, coordination, vendor, and follow-up systems that let a lean operation compete with bigger shops. Technology applied to a traditional industry.
Why it matters for LuxiEdge
Investors don't need a founder who only codes at 2 a.m. They need one who still delivers for customers under the Texas sun.

MD America Energy
Former CEO of a Texas oil & gas operating company — the smallest ever rated by Moody's and S&P. ~71,000 net acres, 300+ wells, ~$1B in asset value. If you're evaluating LuxiEdge, it answers whether I can execute at scale and survive a downturn.
