I build agentic AI systems that hold up in the real world — multi-agent orchestration, persistent memory, and the infrastructure to ship them safely.

Engineering AI that earns trust in production
I'm an AI/ML and full-stack engineer with 4+ years shipping agentic systems — the kind that have to be correct, auditable, and fast when real people and regulated data are on the line.
Most of my work lives at the intersection of multi-agent orchestration, persistent memory, and the infrastructure that lets teams ship agents safely: grounding responses in real domain data, gating quality with continuous evals, and enforcing guardrails from day one rather than bolting them on later.
I've built across healthcare, fintech, and regulated enterprise environments — distributed backends, event-driven pipelines, large React/TypeScript frontends, and data platforms scaled from zero to tens of thousands of integrations.
I work fast and I raise the floor around me — building reusable patterns and tooling so non-AI engineers can extend what I ship, and leaning on AI coding tools daily to move from research to working pipeline quickly.

May 2024 — PresentColumbus, OH
Architecting agentic AI systems — and the infrastructure to run them safely — across consumer apps and regulated enterprise portals.
- Architected multi-agent orchestration pipelines in LangGraph & LangChain with MCP tool integrations, structured output schemas, and safe tool execution for complex multi-step reasoning.
- Built persistent memory over pgvector and Graphiti knowledge graphs, grounding LLM responses in domain data and cutting hallucinations on high-stakes queries.
- Stood up CI/CD for agents with automated LangSmith eval harnesses — gating task success, grounding, latency, and drift on every deploy.
- Shipped enterprise safety guardrails and anti-jailbreak middleware with strict tenant isolation and audit-ready access logging.
- Built Kafka + SSE event streaming that cut perceived latency (TTFB) by 50% versus REST polling, plus real-time observability dashboards.
- Owned large React/TypeScript frontends (Redux, Zustand, Jotai) and the build/test tooling (Vite, esbuild, Vitest) across the codebase.

Nov 2021 — May 2023Remote
Built full-stack data platforms and AI-powered workflow tools at scale across healthcare and regulated enterprise environments.
- Built a full-stack data platform from zero to 10,000+ integration points in 6 months across AWS, Azure, and GCP, serving millions of daily requests.
- Engineered a Neo4j knowledge graph linking millions of entities for dependency analysis, impact tracing, and relationship-aware ML features.
- Diagnosed and resolved bottlenecks across Presto, Trino, BigQuery, and Spark — cutting critical analytics execution time by 40%.
- Shipped an automated data governance framework reaching 99% data-quality compliance with full audit trails and auto-correction.
- Operated Airflow pipelines ingesting hundreds of external APIs under strict privacy and compliance controls.
- Delivered HIPAA-aligned clinical workflow tools and interactive BI dashboards in React & TypeScript.

Currently building
- Building reusable agentic workflow patterns and a plugin distribution system so non-AI engineers can ship agents independently.
- Deepening eval coverage — grounding, drift, and latency gates wired into CI/CD for every agent deploy.
- Exploring on-prem inference and model versioning/rollback for regulated enterprise environments.
Let's build something agentic.
