About Me

Building Interpretable Systems That Work in the Real World

I build applied AI systems and production-grade web products with a strong emphasis on clarity, interpretability, and structured execution.

My background combines:
• 12+ years in judicial systems (process rigor, documentation discipline, regulatory awareness)
• SaaS product development (1,000+ paying users)
• Applied machine learning research (interpretable ML on population health data)

I operate at the intersection of engineering, structured thinking, and real-world deployment — designing systems that are not only functional, but explainable and reliable.

What I ship React/TypeScript UIs; Django APIs; Stripe; PostgreSQL; CI/CD
Highlights PlainLegal: 1,000 paying users; +25% perf; security headers; Chrome extensions
