01 — What I do

Twelve years of engineering, pointed at AI.

Deep in the Node.js ecosystem, now focused on getting real AI systems into production — the models, the agents, and the plumbing that keeps them honest.

02 — Selected work

Real products, with my fingerprints on them.

03 — About

Twelve years of shipping — now building with AI.

I'm a software engineer with twelve years behind me, most of it deep in the Node.js ecosystem. The last stretch has been all AI: real-time voice agents, multi-agent systems on LangChain and Deep Agents, and the LLM integrations that quietly do the work inside real products.

I work two ways. Solo, I design and ship complete products end to end with Claude Code and Codex — Vocavela and Fitting Room are both live, paywalls on. Embedded in a team, I've helped build and ship platforms used by real companies: Smarter Contact, Bright Bird and Euros Pay.

Beyond building, I consult on AI architecture, code quality and production readiness — and I audit and fix AI-assisted, “vibe-coded” apps that need a steadier hand before they scale.

Get in touch

Let's build something.

Hiring, a project, a second opinion on an AI build, or a “vibe-coded” app that needs a steadier hand — a 30-minute call is the fastest way to find out if I can help.
