AI Engineer with a proven track record of rapid prototyping, scaling distributed systems, and delivering high-impact solutions.
With 8+ years of experience in high-growth startups and innovative projects, I can quickly turn ideas into functional prototypes that deliver real value.
Specialized in leveraging AI to solve complex problems, build intelligent systems, and create innovative solutions that drive business growth.
Experience in building distributed systems that scale from prototype to production, supporting billions in revenue and millions of users.
Good designers use a combination of creative and analytical skills to come up with innovative solutions. Having training as both an engineer and a designer has allowed me to make both my analytical and creative skills stronger by using ideas from one in the other – making new ways to discover innovations.
After leaving the crypto space and my last startup, I have been focused on learning AI really well. To that end I have joined Gauntlet AI, a 12-week AI intensive teaching people how to use AI to build, and how to build AI products.
My prior experience could not have prepared me more. As a huge generalist, I have experience with end-to-end prototyping both on the design side and the engineering side. As a serial founder and tech lead, I am used to directing teams of engineers much in the way coders direct AI systems when coding with them.
Use creative and analytic skills to brainstorm and organize all of the ideas and possibilities available. Find a question to ask and design an experiment.
Using rapid prototyping and simple technologies, develop a minimum testable prototype (or MTP) – a prototype that will allow you to run your experiment cheaply and nothing more.
Get your prototype in front of people, and get ready to ask questions and collect data. Discover the different answers to your experiment.
