This portfolio demonstrates my ability to research complex subjects, apply rigorous analysis, and communicate findings through clear technical writing. The works span forensic investigation, historical research, scientific analysis, and applied problem-solving. Each project reflects the same principles I bring to client work: precision, clarity, and attention to detail.
Portfolio
Applied Analysis & Investigation
Forensic Report on Amelia Earhart Skeletal Remains
Statistical analysis of bone length data to assess gender using mathematical modeling, probability, logistic regression, Excel, and Excel Solver.
FBI Ballistics Testing Evaluation
The Analytic Hierarchy Process applied to evaluate methodologies for ballistic efficacy and performance using mathematical modeling, Excel, and Excel Solver.
The Press and the Jack the Ripper Case
Graduate-level historical research paper analyzing media coverage and the historical context surrounding the case.
Scientific & Technical Papers
Applied Analytical Mechanics Lab Reports
Topics include Collisions, Harmonic Motion, and Multicomponent Oscillators. These selected academic laboratory reports demonstrate experimental design, data collection, Excel-based quantitative analysis, graphing, calculus-based derivations, and precise technical writing, illustrating the ability to communicate complex scientific concepts clearly and accurately.
Thermodynamics Papers
Two professional technical writing projects on the Second Law of Thermodynamics, prepared for different audiences—one general and one academic—demonstrating clear, accurate, and audience-appropriate scientific communication.
Product & Efficacy Reporting
Product Efficacy Report
An evaluation of consumer product performance and ingredients using evidence-based criteria, clear technical writing, and appropriate sourcing.
Mathematics Papers
Optimization of the Guitar Fretboard
Mathematical optimization applied to musical structure—blending global constraints, linear algebra, objective functions, advanced Excel, the Network Flow Model, and the Traveling Salesperson Model, to a creative artistic application.
AI Research, AI Dialogue, Recursive Questioning, and Speculation
Life Beyond Earth: A Recursive Dialogue on Intelligence, Matter, and Meaning
(AI Speculative Science Research Report)
This extended-format dialogue investigates the possibility of life beyond Earth—not through soundbites or summaries, but via recursive inquiry with an AI. I deconstruct definitions of life, intelligence, and matter, questioning assumptions baked into human science.
The Lead Masks Case: A Rational Inquiry into One of Brazil’s Greatest Unsolved Mysteries
(AI Investigative Report)
In this investigative dialogue, I analyze the infamous 1966 Lead Masks Case from a cold-start position—no prior knowledge, no preloaded theories— using recursive questioning, forensic logic, and AI-assisted analysis.
Are Compostable Plastics Actually Better for the Environment?
(AI Claim Analysis Report)
This report analyzes the claim that compostable plastics are environmentally superior to conventional plastics.
