SUMMARY
Principal AI Systems Architect, Principal AI Scientist, and Independent Researcher with 21 years of experience transforming complex, ill-defined business problems into production-grade engineering solutions for global enterprises and early-stage startups. I work end-to-end in AI: from figuring out the right business problem, through architecture for production, to the engineering work itself. Original cross-disciplinary research is the source of competitive advantage I bring — not a separate activity from delivery.
