Selected Work

Hired to build. Shipped to last.

Fractional CTO engagements and products where I designed the interface, built the front and back end, and shipped the AI underneath — for regulated and mission-driven teams that couldn't afford to get it wrong.

AI matching that opened two new revenue lines

A nonprofit talent-matching platform needed candidate review and matching to scale past what its team could do by hand — without losing the judgment that made placements good.

Problem

The mission ran on matching talent to opportunity, but review was manual and capped by team capacity. Growth meant either reviewers the budget couldn't cover, or software that scaled the work while preserving human judgment.

What I did

Built an AI review-and-matching engine on TensorFlow and LLMs with the org's own criteria encoded, kept humans in the loop where judgment mattered, and designed it so new services could be layered on the same core.

One codebase, open-source and a business at once

An organization wanted to build in the open and build a company at the same time. I refactored the monolith so community-facing code could live in public repos while trade-secret pieces stayed private.

Problem

One tangled codebase was trying to be an open-source project and a business with protectable IP. They couldn't open the community-facing parts without exposing trade secrets — and couldn't move fast on either.

What I did

Refactored the monolith into services split along a public/private boundary, set up packaging and CI/CD so open-source components could be consumed by the private app without secrets ever crossing over, and established a safe contribution model.

Inkra — conversation to finished work

Co-founder & CTO. An AI platform that turns real conversations — on Zoom, over the phone, in person — into completed, structured work for the non-technical teams running nonprofits.

Problem

Program staff spend hours turning a single conversation into notes, documents, and follow-up tasks. The people doing this work aren't technical and don't want a tool that feels like one.

What I did

Owned it end-to-end: designed the conversational UI and user flows, then built the front end, back end, and the agent layer — with HIPAA-shaped workflows, an audit trail, and a privacy layer built in from day one.

Product-validation tools, inside your own AI

An MCP server that exposes a full product-validation pipeline as composable AI tools — usable directly inside Claude, ChatGPT, and Cursor, with no new app to learn.

Problem

Non-technical founders can't self-serve product validation; the knowledge is fragmented and per-user tooling is expensive to run.

What I did

Designed and built the server and its tool set, then distributed it through MCP registries so people use it inside the AI assistant they already pay for — self-serve, with zero per-user infrastructure cost.

Brand system to app store, in one pair of hands

Cross-platform mobile apps taken from the first brand decision all the way to a store-ready build — design and engineering by the same person.

Problem

Small teams need a polished, on-brand mobile presence and don't have a separate designer, iOS dev, Android dev, and release engineer to make it happen.

What I did

Built the brand system and UI, then shipped the app on both platforms from one React Native codebase — through TestFlight and store-ready EAS builds.

Work from inside regulated engineering orgs, shown at a high level. Screens stay behind the NDA; the systems and outcomes don't.

Multi-agent platform

agentlib

Six specialized AI agents and seven plugins spanning the full dev lifecycle at a public medical-device company. Adopted as a standard; compressed a 2.5-month security project to six weeks.

Clinical AI

RAG progress notes

Retrieval pipeline with NLP compliance scoring and human-in-the-loop review gates, built to cut provider documentation time in a HIPAA setting.

Community tooling

AI skill-dev bot

A Slack-based grading engine for a 10,000+ member community — automated, personalized feedback across text, image, and voice submissions.
