Software engineer focused on AI infrastructure, developer tooling, cloud systems, and applied AI. I am also a licensed Connecticut attorney with a JD, LL.M., and MBA, which makes me especially useful in roles where engineering intersects with legal-tech, compliance, contracts, workflows, risk, or technical customer communication.

Recent work:

- Mastra: contributed to an open-source TypeScript framework for AI agents, workflows, and MCP servers. Built/implemented observability integrations, Azure OpenAI support, MCP auth context propagation, workflow error handling fixes, and CLI/DX improvements.

- Nimbus: created an open-source TypeScript CLI + AWS CDK framework for deploying lightweight NLP models to AWS. Reduces a 35+ step manual deployment process to one command: https://nimbusnlp.github.io/

- RAGCast: built a full-stack RAG app for querying podcast transcripts with OpenAI, LangChain, PostgreSQL/pgvector, and React.

- Mozilla Firefox: contributed WebExtensions API patches, including work related to faster extension security update delivery.

Best fit: Software Engineer, AI Engineer, Backend/Cloud Engineer, DevTools Engineer, Solutions Engineer, or legal-tech / compliance automation roles.
