AI  ·  Data  ·  Engineering


I bring AI, data, and actionable tool engineering to organizations that need it. I approach every project with a founder's mindset. Ship fast, validate early, double down on what works. Mobile apps, internal tools, LLM workflows. I turn ideas into things teams actually use.

I'm high agency, not high certainty. I lead by spotting potential in people and creating conditions for them to shine. Their wins are my wins.


What I do

I lead AI and data platform teams but think like a founder. I prioritize impact over process and remove friction so teams can focus. I don't show up with opinions. I show up with a case.

I architect and run data and AI systems end to end: streaming, vector DBs, embeddings, RAG, and LLM orchestration for mobile and web products. I build agents and tools that real people use, with logging, evaluation, and guardrails baked in from the start.

I write code in Python, run infra on Docker and AWS, and use Git workflows while keeping speed to market in mind. I also design and launch internal tools, mobile apps, and productivity products that help teams work smarter.

Technology focus

Area Stack
Languages Python, SQL, some Go and TypeScript
Data & AI Kafka, streaming, vector DBs, embeddings, RAG, LLM orchestration (OpenAI, Anthropic, Llama, local models)
Infrastructure AWS, Kubernetes, Docker, Terraform, CI/CD, observability
Development Git, GitHub Actions, testing, clean architecture, documentation
Mobile React Native, Expo, mobile APIs, offline support for AI-powered apps

Recent projects

I build things constantly. Most don't become businesses, and that's the point. They're R&D. Every project pushes my skills somewhere I haven't been before, which makes me sharper at the day job.

  • Productivity tools and mobile apps that use AI to automate repetitive tasks or summarize information.
  • LLM agents for internal teams. Support bots, ops helpers, eng accelerators.
  • Data platform slices: minimal but realistic examples of ingestion, transformation, and serving for AI and analytics.
  • Infrastructure patterns I reuse to spin up new experiments on AWS and Docker quickly.

What I care about

Shipping quickly but safely. Prototype, learn, iterate. Perfection can wait.
Building things people actually use. Real time saved, not demos.
AI that makes sense in context. Models and agents that fit into existing workflows, not bolted on.
Simple, maintainable architecture. Systems I can move fast with now without paying for it later.

If you're working on AI-powered apps, internal tools, or productivity products that solve real problems, reach out.
