Engineer, product builder, systems thinker.

Background

I'm an AI Software Engineer in San Francisco, currently building production AI products and internal agent infrastructure at Headline. My recent work includes launching a deck publishing platform, shipping an eight-provider email-finder waterfall that raised outreach match rates to 95%, and completing a zero-downtime Elasticsearch reindex. I previously interned at Headline, where I built a conversational market map with eight Mastra agents and a sandboxed file I/O layer for AI agents.

Before Headline, I was the Founding AI Engineer at VOCA Health, where we placed 5th overall and 2nd in the Health category at the Cozad New Venture Challenge 2025, securing $20,000 in seed funding for an iOS app that detects vocal disorders for 500+ beta users with 89% diagnostic accuracy. I began my career at Deloitte, building 65+ REST APIs and full-stack features in .NET.

How I work

• Ship end-to-end — I like owning products from ingest and storage through hosting, export, and the final user workflow.
• Engineer past the happy path — zero-downtime reindexing, backfill recovery, and isolated agent sandboxes matter as much as the demo.
• Measure the impact — 95% outreach match rate, 89% diagnostic accuracy, and 50 ms shaved off API response times.
