About

How I got here

I am an AI consultant, senior engineering leader, product builder, author, and PhD researcher. My work combines the precision of software engineering with the ambiguity-handling required for enterprise AI adoption.

I have built and led AI work across healthcare, life sciences, federal systems, telecom, consulting, and independent product ventures. The common thread is practical translation: converting complex AI capability into usable architecture, governed workflows, and deployed applications.

Now

Independent AI Consultant and Product Builder

Operating through Intelligytics to advise, architect, and build AI systems across strategy, agentic AI, product engineering, and applied research.

2026

Author and Open Source Builder

Published Tickets Don’t Compile and released specddkit, a Python library for structured Spec-Driven Development and AI coding-agent workflows.

2024+

PhD Research in Artificial Intelligence

Focused on AI-driven music systems, LLMs, retrieval, prompt engineering, multi-agent workflows, and symbolic/semantic music intelligence.

Career

Healthcare, Life Sciences, Federal, and Enterprise AI

Led and delivered AI, NLP, ontology, semantic data fabric, RAG, and cloud engineering work across IQVIA, Amgen, federal programs, and consulting engagements.

Core Competencies

AI strategy with builder-level execution

AI Systems Strategy

Executive-grade

Roadmaps, operating models, AI Centers of Excellence, governance frameworks, use-case prioritization, and delivery planning.

Agentic & Generative AI

Production-oriented

LLM orchestration, multi-agent workflows, prompt engineering, evaluation loops, tool use, RAG, GraphRAG, and model-grounded applications.

Applied AI Engineering

30+ years

Full-stack AI applications, Python services, cloud deployment, data pipelines, semantic layers, observability, and secure software delivery.

Healthcare & Life Sciences AI

Regulated domains

Clinical NLP, ontologies, knowledge graphs, decision-support concepts, trial intelligence, patient-facing AI, and evidence-grounded outputs.

Spec-Driven Development

Author + toolkit creator

A disciplined way to align product intent, executable requirements, validation, and AI coding-agent context before implementation begins.

Research Translation

PhD AI focus

Turning research in LLMs, music AI, agentic systems, and retrieval into usable product architecture and measurable technical programs.

Research Papers

Generative and agentic AI for music, retrieval, and source-separation workflows

“The best AI programs do not start with model enthusiasm. They start with a clear operating model for evidence, architecture, governance, evaluation, and implementation.”
