AI Engineer · Agentic Systems · RAG

Building AI systems that are grounded, measurable, and useful.

I design agentic AI, retrieval, and evaluation workflows that connect LLM reasoning with reliable data, backend services, and clear engineering controls. My focus is not just generating answers—it is making AI systems easier to measure, debug, and improve.

Selected work

Systems built around evidence, orchestration, and measurable outcomes.

A focused selection of research, nonprofit, and independent work across healthcare AI, enterprise retrieval, and multi-agent applications.

Azure RAG Applied system

Internal grant intelligence assistant

Developed a retrieval-augmented assistant over historical grant content using Azure OpenAI, Azure AI Search, hybrid retrieval, chunking, and metadata filters. The system was designed to improve access to funder-aligned context and reduce manual first-draft preparation.

Multi-agent platform Public project

Agentic Research Intelligence Platform

Built a six-agent research workflow that separates planning, web discovery, content extraction, semantic retrieval, grounded writing, and evaluation. The architecture improves traceability and control by turning a single opaque generation step into a modular, inspectable system.

Experience

Applied AI across research, nonprofit operations, and data systems.

My work combines AI engineering with the practical disciplines that make systems dependable: data quality, modular architecture, retrieval evaluation, backend integration, and clear documentation.
