Driving innovation by building AI-driven products and leading high-performing teams dedicated to making a meaningful impact. In roles such as Engineering Manager, Agile Coach, and Solution Architect, I have contributed to significant open-source projects and developed applications leveraging artificial intelligence. A key highlight is my role in Powerbuddy, a generative AI chatbot that assists students with college selection and career planning. I use AI tools daily, including Claude AI, Google Gemini, OpenAI ChatGPT, and Perplexity. I utilize Claude AI to generate system prompts and ChatGPT to create engaging conversations, enhancing product functionality and user interaction. I am experienced in integrating AI technologies to improve scalability and user experiences across various applications. As the first tech hire at an education startup, I launched an assessment management platform utilizing machine learning. This application was available as a native Java app on Android and a multi-tenant SaaS solution on AWS for students, teachers, and parents. I actively blog about life skills, mind management, and motivation. I've also published three books, which can be found on my Amazon author page: https://www.amazon.com/~/e/B08NF1FCZ1.
