I turn frustrations into features. As a user-centered systems builder, I thrive on translating chaotic systems, confusing workflows, and cluttered spreadsheets into thoughtful software; nothing excites me more than digging beneath the surface of a system to uncover the hidden bugs, flaws, and assumptions others miss.

• 🎯 My passion: Building practical software and AI systems that make complex workflows simpler, more reliable, and more effective.
• 🛠️ My work: LLM-powered tools, automations, data workflows, and open-source software that solve real-world problems.
• 📚 My journey: Music Teacher → Instructional Designer / LMS Administrator → LLM Quality Analyst → AI Engineering

✨ Even Canvas LMS uses my code (a2fd827).

• LLMs: AI SDK, OpenAI API, Anthropic API, OpenRouter
• RAG: chunking, embeddings, vector search, reranking
• AI Evaluation: evaluation development, prompt engineering, Braintrust
• AI Agents: agent development, guardrails, tool calling, multi-step workflows
