About

I specialize in building production AI systems that solve real business problems at scale. My work focuses on multi-agent architectures, AI automation, and serverless infrastructure that consistently delivers double-digit efficiency gains and cost reductions. I've led teams shipping high-uptime platforms handling thousands of daily transactions, and built autonomous AI agents that resolve the majority of tasks without human intervention. I move fast from concept to production, prioritizing measurable impact over complexity.
