Building the Foundation
Soil Advance develops licensed software and hardware to help institutions modernize around community identity, not convention.
We build scalable infrastructure that centers the people it serves — creating institutional software and hardware that redefines standards and reduces barriers to entry across domestic and global economies.
One-size-fits-all modernization leaves communities behind. We build the foundational layer — owned IP, licensed globally — that reduces barriers for other companies and safeguards future investment at every scale.

Career spans DOE national laboratories, aerospace, defense, and nonprofit work — 8 years building cross-domain perspective on how systems serve people, and how often they fall short.
Built AscendAIx independently — full stack, production-ready — while working full time. Every line of code. Every architectural decision. One engineer. Designed for those the system wasn't built for.
Identity-first infrastructure — built around who people actually are, not who a system assumes them to be.
Developing solutions to gaps most overlook — thinking 10 steps before and beyond the problem.
Building the infrastructure layer that redefines global standards and removes barriers to entry across education, healthcare, energy, and public systems.
