Leaving Cecil to Go Founder Mode (Again)

I have left my engineering professor position at Cecil College to work on Such Software full time. It's not the first company I've run, just the first time it's the only thing I'm doing and it has 100% of my focus and energy and attention.

The earlier ones:

• Patrn LLC / art101.io: a crowdfunding platform for NFTs. We put out 35,000+ NFTs across twelve collections, free on Ethereum, ~$2.5M in secondary volume.
• Tabby Labs: a cryptocurrency wallet with a game world inside it, incorporated in Delaware to raise VC.

None made me money to speak of. What they did was teach me how to ship to real users, live with my own decisions, and be my own boss (which is harder than it sounds for sure) which you don't get to do as an employee.

Teaching was great, and I'll miss the students. It also made me a better engineer. When you have to explain something to a room of people who don't already get it, you find out quickly which parts you actually understand. The accessibility focus at Such Software comes from the same place: if it has to work for a whole class, it has to work for everyone.

What Such Software does: accessible web apps and e-commerce, my own apps and games, and consulting: including consulting on payments, cryptocurrency infrastructure and development, and radiation transport and modeling. My background over the last 15 years, spanning both cryptocurrency and nuclear engineering, gives me a unique skillset allowing me to consult in these disparate areas: a PhD in materials engineering focused on neutron detection, contributing to Monero since shortly after its inception, six years at a national lab, launching Wownero, a short stint at Holtec International, almost a decade leading the largest cryptocurrency community on the internet at Reddit's r/CryptoCurrency, my previous two startups, and the Monte Carlo work that came with all of it.

If you've got an issue that you need help with in that wide and disparate range, if you are an artist or artisan looking to get online with a professional web presence, if you need help with a custom website or hosting, or if you are looking for help with custom mobile, desktop, or web app development then get in touch with us at Such Software
