Production AIthat ships.

I build human-in-the-loop AI for the users the default system was failing — first as a frontline clinician, now as a technical founder and designer. One USPTO patent pending. One DOI-published pipeline. Nine systems shipped.

Capabilities

Range and depth,
by deliberate design.

01

Clinical AI

Twenty-one years of clinical, education, and admissions work — anesthesia, psychiatry, special education. Domain depth that informs every system I design.

02

Agentic AI

Production agents on Claude's tool-use API and MCP. ReAct orchestration, multi-step planning, and evaluation harnesses with adversarial test sets.

AB
03

Design-engineering

Working prototypes wired to real systems. Iterative bake-offs with Claude and Cursor, with the visual and interaction craft pushed until it ships.

04

Responsible AI

Fairness audits, bias detection, and SHAP interpretability. Programmatic labeling and weak supervision as production patterns — humans in the loop.

Selected work

Flagship systems first.

Patent-pending clinical AI, a hackathon-shipped agent-governance platform, citation-grounded RAG, and DOI-published research — each solving a specific problem at the intersection of expert domain knowledge and machine intelligence.

Compass-BlackBox IQ

Microsoft Foundry + MCP · solo build

Agents League · AI Skills Fest 2026

A git-backed, Markdown-native blackbox flight recorder and skill auditor for autonomous agents. It governs the layer permissions and orchestration don't — memory and competence. Every action is an immutable decision record; audit heuristics turn uncited decisions into draft skill proposals a human approves. Agents propose; humans promote. Grounds on Microsoft Foundry IQ, kept orthogonal to governed memory.

V-JEPA 2.1 + 3D LIDAR · sole inventor

USPTO PGA-2026-001 · Patent pending

A dual-path agentic fall-prediction pipeline deployed to NVIDIA Jetson Orin. Fast path: under 200ms fall detection. Prediction path: forecasts pre-fall motion 2–3 seconds before impact via a V-JEPA 2.1 encoder/predictor over BEV depth maps. Sensor fusion with LIDAR, pressure mats, and clinical context. HL7 FHIR R4 integration, fairness-audited across mobility and body-type subgroups.

Ask a textbook a question; get an answer where every claim is checked against the exact page image that proves it. Retrieval is Cohere Embed v4 over 1,347 page images; answering and verification are Claude vision calls in a LangGraph verify→repair loop. Faithfulness 0.985, recall@5 0.864 — reported as measured, not tuned. Fully API-based and serverless.

Clinical AI Agent

SMART on FHIR + transparent RAG

Live demo

Patient-grounded, citation-traceable clinical decision support on open standards. A 5-agent pipeline fuses a patient's live SMART on FHIR record with cited evidence, emits dual citations (patient data + literature), and scores its own faithfulness with a built-in Clinical Work IQ harness. Built to fill the unoccupied square in a scan of nine frontier healthcare-AI companies: open, transparent, patient-grounded, self-proving.

Design-engineering case study · solo

Live

A reading-group companion app — and a working argument that the typed-component pattern from frontier-lab game-playing research generalizes outside of games. Six recipe cards, five lifecycle states, one canonical card catalog that fills session by session. Built end-to-end in a deliberate bake-off with Claude and Cursor. Demonstrates the AutoHarness / Code-World-Models pattern on a non-clinical surface.

Published RAG · clinical decision support

DOI 10.57967/hf/8101

An end-to-end RAG pipeline published on Hugging Face with a DOI: ingestion, chunking, embeddings, semantic retrieval, re-ranking, prompt engineering, deployment. LLM-as-a-Judge scoring rubrics across multiple clinical query classes — the evaluation infrastructure is the asset, not the model itself.

Approach

From bedside
to build.

The methodology is the same across every chapter: design the system that lets a real person do something hard, with humans in the loop and the stakes visible.

Responsible AI

Responsible by
construction.

Fairness, interpretability, and honest evaluation aren't a compliance afterthought. They're design constraints I build in from the first commit — especially for systems that touch patients.

Fairness audits

Subgroup performance checks across mobility and body-type cohorts before anything ships — built into PREVERA Guardian+AI.

Honest evaluation

LLM-as-a-Judge rubrics, a reproducible Clinical Work IQ harness, and scope-and-saturation reporting. Numbers as measured, not tuned.

Interpretability

SHAP attributions, append-only decision records, and dual citations you can verify against the source by eye.

Human-in-the-loop

Agents propose; humans promote. Programmatic labeling and weak supervision with a person in the loop, and revocable memory.

Several systems ship as public, runnable artifacts — MCP servers, Hugging Face Spaces, and DOI-published pipelines. Reproducible from the repo and gated by offline tests.

MCP-native

Two MCP servers — llm-council and Compass — callable from Claude Code.

Reproducible evals

Offline CI gates, golden sets, and honest scorecards in every repo.

Live demos

Runnable Hugging Face Spaces and Vercel deployments, not screenshots.

Journey

A non-linear path with through-line.

Every role taught something that compounds in the AI work: clinical reasoning under pressure, mixed-methods research, multi-stakeholder delivery, and consultative communication with expert and non-expert audiences alike.
