About
I'm a Forward Deployed Engineer building production-ready AI systems. I currently work at Galileo, where I work directly with Fortune 100 customers to design, evaluate, and deploy LLM applications in production. My work spans LLM guardrails, evaluation pipelines, monitoring, and cost control, with a focus on reliability and real-world impact.
Before moving into tech full time, I worked in real estate operations, where I helped scale a boutique brokerage to over $100M in transaction volume.
Outside of my primary role, I run Summit & Shark, LLC, through which I've built a production AI leasing chatbot for real estate clients and a Chrome extension for analyzing Zillow data used by hundreds of users.
