Principal Architect at Meaningfulness Media Group

August 1, 2025 - Present

Architected and developed a full-stack digital platform using Node.js (backend) and React.js (frontend) to host the Speculative Ontological Engine of the 'Codex Totalis,' a dynamic, hyperlinked knowledge base for complex narrative ecosystems. Built a custom 2.5D lighting and shadow engine using PIXI.js and GLSL integrated into the React application, featuring a data-driven Entity Component System (ECS) architecture configurable via JSON. Engineered custom JSON-LD schemas and metadata standards to implement the Authorship Transparency Statement (ATS) protocol, ensuring machine-readability and semantic interoperability across digital assets. Designed responsive, component-based UI/UX in React to visualize complex causal relationships and hierarchical data structures (The SOE Framework), translating abstract systems theory into interactive web interfaces.
