01 SUMMARY

14+ years building enterprise software; the last three shipping GenAI to production. Today I consult to Bio-Rad Laboratories (Fortune-500 US life sciences) as their AI Forward Deployed Engineer — business teams across HR, Sales, Finance, Regulatory and Operations in APAC and the US bring me problems, and I own everything from first conversation to deployed, adopted system. Built my own agentic delivery lifecycle (ADLC) to run 4–5 builds in parallel. Before this: founded Ethos's AI-first FDE practice, shipped an $8.4M no-code B2B SaaS workflow platform at Wells Fargo, scaled a 0→1 logistics platform 10× at Loadshare, and spent 7 years at Adobe in engineering.

"The common thread — systems that scale, clear security, legal and audit review, and actually get used. I still think adoption beats architecture."
