About01
I'm a Forward Deployed Engineer who builds generative-AI systems that survive contact with production. My focus is the hard last mile: taking LLM agents, RAG pipelines, and agentic workflows from prototype to reliable, governed, real-world deployment. I embed with the problem, map chaotic enterprise data into something a model can actually reason over, and ship systems that stakeholders trust, backed by evaluation, guardrails, and audit trails. Recent work spans healthcare AI, clinical-data harmonization, and open-source contributions across the Microsoft, Google, and Goldman Sachs ecosystems.

eligible
Patient-to-trial matching on harmonized clinical data. Harmonizes multi-source EHR into the OMOP CDM (dbt), converts free-text trial eligibility into structured logic, and runs audited agentic matching (LangGraph + DeepSeek) with per-criterion evidence. PHI redaction, RBAC, a tamper-evident audit chain, FHIR output, and a Next.js review UI.

AI Agent
PROJECT_03 / 06 · LIVE DEMO
clarify
Production LLM agent that turns a free-text brief into a validated BA artifact pack. Multi-step reasoning with a self-correcting clarification loop, typed IDs, RACI matrix, traceability. Llama 3.3 70B fallback chain via OpenRouter.
LLM AgentTool Calling
# clarify
$ # input: "vendor invoice approval tool"
→ Agent asks 6 clarifying questions before assuming
→ Restates assumptions, then ships artifact pack
→ Typed IDs (BR/SR/FR/NFR/TR/TC) · RTM · RACI register
✓ First-draft turnaround: ~6 hours → under 5 minutes
