I’m a Principal AI Systems Engineer with 25+ years of experience building software, leading teams, and helping developers solve hard problems. My work spans full-stack applications, cloud infrastructure, and AI systems. These days, I focus on open-source ML inference and runtime engineering: Apple Silicon, MLX/Metal, speculative decoding, and agentic AI. I’m interested in making local AI faster, more useful, and practical for everyday development. I’m building ManyNest, a professional network for sharing your work and connecting with people, and Orvlet, a local-first coding app that lets developers choose their own local or cloud AI provider. Outside of work, I’m a youth hockey parent. Always curious, always building.
