I have 10+ years of experience as an engineer and 2+ years as CTO. Over the past 2 years I've been shipping agents/LLM-based flows to production using Typescript, React, Bun/Node, Django and Python. I thrive in small and highly autonomous teams with a strong focus on product and go-to-market.

I run my own LLC and I'm open to contract work.

If you're looking to switch from foundation models to smaller custom models for faster & cheaper inference, I have experience with fine-tuning and reinforcement learning.

I am currently bootstrapping a product but I am open for employment if it's a great fit. I have over 10 years of experience as engineer and founder. As an engineer I've worked in finance, research (economics & health care), education, real estate, marketing and dev infra.

Recently, I’ve been using Typescript, React, Bun/Node, Django and Python to build web apps and agentic workflows on top of foundation models. I have some experience with fine-tuning and with reinforcement learning, so I’m also interested in work that is closer to research.

I have my own LLC and I am also open to contract work.

excellent article!

one of my favorite books about this that i can not recommend enough is “the miracle of mindfulness” by thich nhat hanh.

my read on it is that it’s liberation and freedom in a very buddhist sense.

you won’t be free from hunger, but it may reframe our relationship with food so there is less compulsion and mindless consumption.

it won’t take away fear in the face of imminent danger (that’s a good thing, we have to survive) but it may reduce background anxiety that’s present in our daily lives.
