About

Engineer by trade,
builder by nature.

I'm an AI and platform engineer based in New York City — building production systems at the intersection of machine learning, data engineering, and cloud infrastructure through my consultancy, Innovate Loop.

On the creative side, I run Rare Event Productions — doing full event production, photography, and videography across live music, weddings, conferences, and corporate events in NYC. The same attention to detail that goes into a system architecture goes into a well-produced event.

I build things I'd want to use — and produce experiences people actually want to remember.
