I'm a 𝗙𝗿𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗖𝗧𝗢 / 𝗖𝗵𝗶𝗲𝗳 𝗔𝗜 𝗢𝗳𝗳𝗶𝗰𝗲𝗿 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗱𝘀-𝗼𝗻 𝗯𝘂𝗶𝗹𝗱𝗲𝗿. I lead AI product strategy and architecture, then get into the code: AI agents, RAG pipelines, and automation, plus the observability, guardrails, and governance that keep them alive in production. I separate deterministic infrastructure from probabilistic reasoning so failures are traceable and costs are bounded.
𝗜 𝗯𝘂𝗶𝗹𝗱 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 Cursor, Claude (incl. Claude Code and MCP), OpenAI, Python, and a modern full stack: React / Next.js / Node / TypeScript, Supabase / PostgreSQL, on AWS. I orchestrate workflows with n8n, Make, and Zapier, and ship production voice and agent systems (Retell, Vapi, Twilio) for regulated environments.
𝗔𝗻𝗱 𝗜 𝗹𝗲𝗮𝗱. I set the roadmap, make the build-vs-buy and model calls, stand up evaluation and governance, and bring junior engineers up to deliver. You get a strategist who has actually built the thing, not a deck, and not a coder who's never owned production.

I work best with companies that already understand 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗱𝘂𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗔𝗜 𝗶𝘀 𝗮 𝗱𝗶𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗿𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗴𝗮𝗺𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝗻 𝗮 𝗱𝗲𝗺𝗼 and have decided production-grade AI is what their organization needs.
