Senior AI Engineer · Tampa, FL
I work at Elevance Health, building production-grade AI systems for healthcare. My day-to-day lives at the intersection of LLMs, regulatory constraints, and clinical workflows.
5+ years in healthcare AI have made me clear on what it takes to ship and maintain these systems, not just prototype them. I care a lot about the boring-but-important stuff: eval frameworks, PHI-safe pipelines, explainability, and keeping costs sane in production.

What I actually spend my time on
Building agentic RAG pipelines that work reliably in production. Designing LLM evaluation frameworks that don't cost a fortune. Also a lot of cross-team collaboaration, which I genuinely enjoy.
I write on Medium occasionally when something in AI engineering feels under-explained or over-hyped. Not a regular, just when I have something worth sharing.
I also do 1:1 mentoring for folks trying to break into AI Engineering or level up toward senior roles. If that's you, feel free to book time. If you would love to have a conversation about AI Engineering/LLMs I would love that too.
