Systems work, creative practice, and public notes.

I am Patrick Larsen, a security-focused platform engineer and founder-builder. My technical work centers on infrastructure security automation, Python and Go services, policy-gated workflows, operator-safe control planes, and evidence-backed governance. This site also holds my writing, relational tools, and music practice.

Relational tools

The Compass is a reflective framework, quiz, compatibility map, and conversation deck. It is designed for curiosity and repair, not diagnosis, fixed personality labels, or compatibility verdicts.
