Architecting the Latent Space.

I'm a Technical Lead for AI/ML and Innovation at PDI Technologies, driving agentic AI solutions, automation workflows, and ML-powered products for the convenience retail and petroleum industry. With 6+ years of experience across Generative AI, NLP, and Computer Vision, I specialize in turning complex AI research into production systems that drive real business impact.

I've built agent frameworks, chatbots, RAG systems, and AI-driven products serving enterprise customers at scale. Previously at ConnectWise, I architected agentic ticket resolution systems and in-house RAG frameworks used across entire organizations.

I write about building AI systems, agentic architectures, and the lessons I pick up along the way. This blog is where I think out loud.
