I’m a software developer with a strong focus on automation, secure networking systems, and distributed infrastructure. I believe attitude outpaces raw ability, and I take pride in tackling new challenges head-on, ramping up quickly, and exceeding expectations on delivery.

After spending the first two years of my professional career in a large, legacy, telecom environment, I’m eager to join a driven team with a clear mission and the freedom to innovate without the weight of decades-old complexity.


I'm developing ParaNoia, an application that allows people to securely share passwords between each other (https://github.com/jonesconnor/paranoia).

At my organization, we have a corporate-approved password manager, but shared folders are disabled. If someone needs a FID password, or something of the like, there are people that send the password in plain text over Slack, Teams, etc. and not everyone deletes their message containing the password afterwards.

You enter your secret on the website and it gets encrypted on the client-side before being sent to the database. A one-time-use URL is generated and then you send that URL to whomever needs the password. The backend never sees the secret in plain-text.

The tool is meant to be self-hosted - but I'm in the process of deploying it publicly for people to try out. I got the idea from my brother -- he was doing an internship at Tesla and said they had this being used internally, so I figured I would create my own as a little side project that I can then implement at work.


I like the idea, but _please_ include screenshots or a demo on your repo's readme... it's an issue that comes up frequently on the /r/selfhosted subreddit:

Making this installable on Sandstorm would be great.
