Founding product engineer and technical product builder specializing in 0-to-1 software, AI-enabled workflows, and early-stage startup execution.

I turn manual operations into MVPs, pilots, internal tools, and revenue-supporting systems. My work spans fintech, workforce tech, education, research, and community organizations.

At Captain HQ, I was the first developer hire and helped build the core systems that supported $1M in total volume across claims, payments, and contractor workflows. As the founder of Sircularity, I've served approximately 10 startups and organizations as an embedded product engineer across 6-12 month engagements, helping clients win awards, raise funding, generate revenue, and navigate pivots.

I build across full-stack, low-code, and AI-enabled workflows. On the AI side, I've been designing and shipping AI agents and agentic workflows since 2023, well before the current wave. That includes structured-output systems, agent-based research tools, and AI-powered operational workflows for early-stage products.

Past work has earned a Google for Startups Award, the VOGT Award, powered a 500-participant AI research study, and saved $10K in operating costs for a school administration system.

If you're an early-stage founder or organization with a manual process that needs to become software, or a concept that needs its first working version, that's where I operate best.
