AI / ML engineer · multi-agent & agentic AI · computer vision · published researcher
I'm an AI / ML engineer with 6+ years across production computer vision, multi-agent and LLM systems, RAG and agentic pipelines, and security-focused developer tools. I ship code, papers, and consumer products.
▸Open-source contributor to Greywall, a container-free, deny-by-default sandbox for AI coding agents (Go · Linux Landlock + seccomp · macOS sandboxing).▸Core developer of Packrat, an open-source.waczweb-archive viewer that loads archives peer-to-peer via WebTorrent. I drove the WebTorrent integration, the in-archive search experience, the magnet-link share UI, and OPFS-backed browser-local storage.▸AI/ML consultant at Clockout (consulting engagement), a live consumer-AI networking app with 4,500+ communities. Built the AI-introductions matching engine and the AI-based user-approval system.▸Co-founder & Head of AI at Converge Labs (stealth). Shipped AI-driven consumer matching (3× faster), real-time sentiment moderation (–56 % toxicity, +35 % retention), AI video generation (70 % of editing automated, 5× content speedup), voice-onboarding (+55 % new-user retention).▸Speaker at AI Safety México (Apr 2026, 91 attendees) on data sovereignty for AI agents; speaker at AI CDMX — Who Pressed Enter?; panelist at the YPWACC AI panel (2023).▸Published at IEEE PIMRC 2023: Radio Map Estimation with Deep Dual Path Autoencoders and Skip Connection Learning.▸M.S. Artificial Intelligence (4.0 / 4.0, Fulbright Scholar) · University of North Texas.▸Open to senior IC, staff, founding-engineer, and product-engineering-lead roles in AI/ML, multi-agent systems, agentic AI, computer vision, developer tools, and security-focused AI infra.
