I build agent systemsthat perceive, reason,act & scale.

Ten-plus years building and scaling products across healthcare, fintech, and AI — leading teams while staying close enough to the code to debug and ship the hard systems. Currently focused on local multimodal agents, clinical automation, and durable agent platforms.
