About

Who I am

Senior AI engineer with 8 years architecting agentic systems for enterprise and B2B clients across insurtech and Web3, taking systems from first LangGraph node to multi-tenant production deployment.

These days I'm at Ancileo, building the bridge between claimants and insurers with AI agents. On the side, I ship my own SaaS products. What I care about most is building agents that scale in production.
