About
I'm a software engineer with 4+ years building web applications, backend systems, mobile apps, and developer tools. My work now centers on AI engineering: LLM-powered applications, retrieval-augmented generation, semantic search, and evaluation. That engineering background shapes how I approach AI systems — as production software, not model demos, which means reliable APIs, clean data, measurable retrieval accuracy, and deployments that hold up.
Across startups, freelance work, and product teams, I've shipped tools for agriculture, healthcare, e-commerce, legal AI, and internal operations — including an agricultural advisory system that reached more than 110,000 farmers. I work across the stack, from backend services and databases to cloud infrastructure and the interfaces people actually use.
