AI Implementation Consultant & Technical Lead
I help teams turn AI ideas into production software.
I specialize in RAG applications, LLM guardrails, backend architecture, and observability for teams that need more than a prototype. I move AI projects from demo to something reliable, monitored, and shippable.
RAG assistants

Live proof of skill
Ask my AI assistant.
A retrieval-augmented assistant grounded in my résumé and case studies, built the way I build them for clients: real vector retrieval, streaming answers, source citations, and observability. It only answers from my materials.
