Meet the Expert Engineering Intelligent Systems That Scale

Who

Introduction

With over 25 years of experience in full-stack development, I now specialize at the intersection of scalable web engineering and production AI systems. I design and optimize high-performance applications leveraging technologies like Next.js, React, GraphQL, AWS, and modern LLM frameworks — building intelligent agent workflows and RAG pipelines that drive measurable business outcomes.

I help businesses modernize legacy systems, architect cloud-native infrastructure, and integrate AI capabilities — from retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) and LLM orchestration to agentic workflows and vector database design. Beyond hands-on engineering, I provide AI strategy and technical leadership to guide startups and enterprises in adopting agile development practices, data architecture & scalability strategies, and the right AI approaches for their scale and goals.

AI & Engineering Expertise

My work spans the full spectrum from infrastructure to intelligence:

• AI Systems & Agentic Workflows— designing multi-step agent pipelines, tool-use systems, and autonomous task orchestration. Currently developing a multi-agent lead generation workflow encompassing prospect research, lead qualification and scoring, and automated email draft generation.

• RAG Architecture & LLM Integration— building retrieval pipelines with vector databases (OpenSearch, Pinecone) and managed AI services like Amazon Bedrock, including hands-on production experience with LangChain for LLM orchestration, embedding strategies, and optimized context windows.

• Scalable System Design— high-availability APIs, microservices, and event-driven architectures that support AI workloads at scale

• DevOps, CI/CD & Software Architecture — designing robust API architectures, implementing CI/CD pipelines, and establishing engineering best practices that keep teams shipping reliably and systems maintainable as they scale.

• Cloud-Native Infrastructure— AWS, serverless, containerized deployments engineered for AI system latency and throughput requirements

• Performance & Cost Optimization— reducing inference costs, latency tuning, and efficient model selection strategies

Entrepreneurial & Creative Ventures

In addition to my engineering career, I founded LA Hot Magazine, a multimedia platform featuring a mobile app and print editions. As the driving force behind the project, I managed content curation, development, and design—ultimately achieving six-figure app downloads. This hands-on experience showcased my ability to combine technical skills with creative vision.

I also ventured into media production, where I produced multiple video productions for commercials for clients and my magazine, along with photography shoots, coordinating a small team and bringing creative concepts to life— experiences that sharpen my ability to communicate complex technical solutions to non-technical stakeholders and to move fluidly between strategic vision and execution.

Bridging Engineering & Business Impact

My unique background enables me to deliver consulting that is both technically rigorous and business-aware. Whether architecting an AI-powered platform from scratch, modernizing a legacy system with LLM capabilities, or building the data infrastructure to support intelligent applications — I operate at the intersection of engineering discipline, AI innovation, and creative problem solving.
