About

I'm an AI engineer and 0→1 product builder, currently Software Engineer II at Adobe, building in-app AI experiences for Photoshop. Before that I was a founding engineer at early-stage startups, shipping LLM systems, multi-agent workflows, and evaluation frameworks into production.

What I love most is taking an idea from a blank repo to a deployed product. I built Verrik, an independent trust layer that captures, grounds, and audits AI-agent decisions for regulated industries, and DealLens, a multi-agent due-diligence platform that turns scattered evidence into a risk-scored investment memo.

Stack I reach for most: Python, TypeScript, LangGraph, Next.js, FastAPI, Postgres, AWS, and the Claude / OpenAI / Gemini APIs. I care about measurable outcomes (latency down, eval scores up, products in users' hands) and about the unglamorous engineering (observability, evals, fallbacks) that makes AI dependable in the real world.
