I build human-centered data platforms that make complex work easier to understand, trust, and act on.
I am a product-minded software engineer who builds data platforms and operational systems for complex, consequential work.
With more than a decade in regulated, data-intensive environments, I have worked across large-scale data acquisition, metadata and discovery, search performance, infrastructure as code, production delivery, and regulated cloud environments. The recurring challenge in my work is creating systems that people and teams can understand, trust, operate, and extend.
I am especially interested in platform products that combine strong domain models, clear interfaces, reliable operations, and thoughtful developer or operator experiences. My independent work also explores data visualization, native product design, scientific machine-learning boundaries, and secure tool integration.
I am developing toward broader technical leadership in data platforms, quality, governance, developer infrastructure, and complex data products.
- Production data systems — nearly six years building consequential data and workflow platforms at JPMorgan Chase, spanning external acquisition, metadata, discovery, search, infrastructure, and operations.
- RPX — a Formula 1 companion built on reproducible historical and live-data pipelines, interactive analysis, and real circuit geometry.
- MCPKit — a Swift framework for exposing bounded local application capabilities through an authenticated interface controlled by the host application.
- RxVision — a computer-vision research project exploring visual medication identification, data provenance, confidence-based abstention, and the gap between controlled validation and ordinary photographs.
- Memo — a private native capture product designed to preserve the context around an idea and deliberately carry it into later work.
- Ritmo — a local-first operating environment for creative projects and music workflows.
My current interests center on data platforms, developer infrastructure, data quality and governance, and product engineering for complex operational systems.
