Austin, TX · CPWA Certified · Post-Grad AI/ML @ UT Austin
I'm a forward-deployed style Applied AI Engineer — I take ambiguous, high-stakes problems from the first stakeholder conversation through to global production. My work lives at the intersection of agentic systems, vision-language models, and generative 3D, and I measure success by systems that actually ship and include everyone.
At Visa I invented the first PIN on Glass entry method globally that met all industry security requirements to enable users with disabilities to securely enter their own confidential information (patent awarded to the team; live across Square, PayPal, and major processors), solo-built A11y SnapCheck — a full-stack VLM platform running multi-LLM accessibility analysis across Visa Global Design — and built the agent benchmarking system and self-healing MCP server now embedded in Visa's enterprise agentic toolchain.
