Portrait of Teofilus Shaduka

I’m Teo. I like figuring things out and making things work.

I’m interested in what happens beneath the surface: how systems fit together, where they break, and what you can build when you understand them. That curiosity has taken me into cybersecurity, software, AI automation, and a few projects outside the usual technical world.

I’m finishing a degree in cybersecurity, building tools to solve problems I’ve run into myself, and growing Principia Works. When I’m away from a screen, there’s a good chance I’m filming or photographing cars.

Working with AI

See how I work with AI

I use AI to make useful things.

I build it into applications and workflows: helping software sort information, turning recordings into structured notes, or automating the parts of a process that don’t need someone doing the same thing by hand. I also experiment with local models when privacy, cost, or control matters.

A few different interests, one way of thinking

Cybersecurity, software, automation, and automotive media might look like separate worlds. For me, they’re all reasons to get curious, learn how something works, and see what I can do with that understanding. Sometimes that means finding a weakness. Sometimes it means building a tool. Sometimes it means getting the shot right.
