I provide seasoned, expert guidance in AI and Machine Learning to help capable teams solve their most critical data challenges and accelerate their roadmap.
Your organization has talent, but the frontiers of data science and AI are complex and constantly evolving. You don't need another pair of hands. You need a force multiplier. An expert to help your team navigate the path from complex data to breakthrough results.
That's where I come in. For nearly 20 years, from Google to scrappy startups and Fortune 50 giants, I've lived by a simple mantra:
I provide hands-on leadership and deep technical expertise to augment your team's capabilities, ensuring your projects are built on a foundation of best practices and cutting-edge techniques.
Move from experimentation to implementation. I guide teams in designing and building secure, production-ready agentic RAG systems and other LLM-powered solutions that create durable value.
Leveraging the full spectrum of machine learning, from classic algorithms like trees and SVMs to modern deep learning, I build and deploy robust models to solve your critical challenges.
Empower your team to master complex market dynamics. I provide expert guidance on sophisticated pricing strategies and forecasting models to maximize revenue and operational efficiency.
I design repeatable, enterprise-grade systems for the entire ML lifecycle, covering the full data journey from large-scale processing to model deployment on Google Cloud or AWS.
Get the strategic oversight of a seasoned expert without the full-time commitment. I act as a trusted advisor to translate business objectives into clear technical roadmaps.
My fascination with this field goes back almost 30 years. I'm the kid who got a copy of Visual Studio 6 for Christmas and immediately started writing my own neural networks. I followed that passion through a deeply math-focused computer science education and into the competitive programming world. My ability to go deep on complex optimization problems earned me a win in a major collegiate contest and, years later, a second award at the top-tier SIGIR 2018 conference.
My professional career has been a journey of turning data into solutions. I've been in the trenches, from the early days of machine learning to the latest in generative AI. I'm not just a theorist; I'm a builder. I've worked with companies at every stage, from pre-seed startups to Fortune 50 leaders, architecting and implementing the data and AI systems that drive their success.
