A deliberate pivot into risk consulting — building the foundations, international relations and data, from first principles up. Everything begins there. ↗ open to a conversation

Risk, data, and the
systems underneath
Belmont by day, pivoting into risk consulting. South Asia geopolitics in the notes, a guitar in the off-hours, and an Obsidian vault that quietly became a second brain. This isn’t a résumé — it’s the garden.
Now
this month’s open tabs, by someone who should probably be asleep.
Curfewed Night — Basharat Peer, on Kashmir under counter-insurgency.
Plain-Python tools that run the day-to-day: a calendar sync, a finance dashboard, and this site. No frameworks. ↗ the workshop
A quiet day or two at home.
Arabic and Spanish, slowly — learned the way anything sticks, by building a system around them.
The Garden
Notes from an ongoing vault — interlinked, half-finished on purpose. Not a blog. Hover a seed for a gloss; the accented ones open a full note. Read the published notes →
South Asia & geopolitics
The region as a system of pressures — migration, borders, power. Where most of the reading lives.
Data & risk
The toolkit for the pivot — turning messy reality into decisions you can defend.
Earth & deep time
Geology as the longest-running system of all. Continents are just slow news.
Sound & culture
How music and meaning move across borders — and how brands quietly engineer who we are.
Kitaabi
A wide net — geopolitics, essays from inside the struggle, fiction that crosses borders. Standing rule: voices from within the world they describe. Everything I’ve read, and what I’ve been studying →

Sound
The other half. The music goes out as mylesddles — the other alter ego.
mylesddles is the handle — the alter ego that owns anything made with sound. Mostly a guitar, no setlist, no polish. Underneath, it’s a chase after roots: the blues, the history of rock, the Sufi–Nepali exchange that keeps surfacing in the notes.
