Currently focused on AI Engineering and emerging technology. Exploring the world as much as I can. The things that drive me are curiosity, agency, and meaningful relationships.
I'm a Senior Solutions Engineer focused on AI and cloud.
Over the past six years, I've worked across cloud infrastructure, AI, APIs, and Kubernetes. I primarily run technical evaluations at VMware and CloudZero helping customers understand the cost and performance of the applications and services they build.
My most recent interests are around AI systems. More specifically agent architecture, model training, and serverless infrastructure with the aim of making AI more acute and accessible.
Technical pre-sales at a cloud cost intelligence platform managing $14B+ in customer cloud spend. Run POCs, deliver technical demos, and help engineering and finance teams build cost allocation models across AWS, GCP, and Azure.
Cloud management, security, and application observability post-VMware acquisition. Maintained technical relationships and pipeline during a complex org transition.
Led technical evaluations for VMware's cloud cost management and security platforms. Built the Technical Enablement Program, closed the largest CloudHealth commercial deal, and maintained 90%+ customer renewal rates.
Owned post-sale success for 100+ customers. Built onboarding programs and automated outreach workflows that drove consistent retention above 90%.
Grew pipeline through prospecting and discovery. Entry point into cloud cost management and the SE track.
A few things I've designed and shipped. I care as much about the context design, evaluation, and reliability behind these as the prompts themselves.
Tests whether a supervised fine-tuned (SFT) LoRA is more accurate and cheaper than calling a base model with either a detailed system prompt, or a base model + RAG. Built on Fireworks AI as the first classification step of a bank support assistant, sorting each customer message into one of 77 pre-defined intents.
A serverless relay that reads the AWS China cost and usage report, rewrites every money column from yuan to US dollars while keeping the report's exact format, and copies it to a commercial-partition bucket so CloudZero ingests it as native AWS data.
A grounded ElevenLabs agent that answers from a source-tagged profile, takes actions through client tools such as showing projects and opening a booking page, plus a bring-your-own-AI onboarding kit and a validator so anyone can build their own.
A LLM Assistant that guides a proof-of-value from success criteria to a validated business case, with state kept in shared storage so any sales engineer can pick it up. It cuts each evaluation by more than two hours.
A routed knowledge corpus, a custom linter with 131 tests, 20 worked example patterns, and an eval harness, packaged so Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, and Codex all behave the same way.
A two-pass culling app with intent-aware grading, taste profiles, and editorial guidance, with billing and a bring-your-own-key option.
An event-driven serverless pipeline plus a backfill tool, built for customers to deploy and run themselves.
A Chrome extension that logs each click and navigation during a demo, plus a Python pipeline that describes each step with Claude vision, fact-checks a written narration, voices it with ElevenLabs, and assembles the final video with captions.
An app that runs locally, counts what a cleanup would remove before acting, and trashes mail in batches of 1,000 with undo.
View on GitHub ↗Echo is my AI assistant, grounded in a reviewed profile of my work. It says plainly when something isn't covered, and can point you to projects and stories on this page. It's one of my projects: ask Echo how it works.
