I design agentic AI systems that survive production.

Architecture, data foundations, and operating practices for enterprises moving past the demo stage. This site is part portfolio, part digital garden — the thinking is public as it grows.

AI systems — the focus

Most enterprise AI stalls between demo and production — because production AI is an architecture, data, and governance problem, not a model problem. That seam is where I work: agent architectures with properly designed memory, the data platforms that give agents something real to act on, and the evaluation and operating practices that keep them trustworthy.

• Agentic AI

  Agent architectures, memory design as a data modeling problem, evaluation harnesses, and failure-mode analysis for systems that act on our behalf.

• Data platforms for AI

  Lakehouse patterns, data modeling, and governance — the foundations that decide whether an agent system has anything true to work with.

Grounded in

The AI work stands on two decades across the full stack of practice: architecture & systems · product & strategy · UI/UX & design · platform engineering · teaching & training. The breadth is why the AI systems hold together; the garden holds the patterns from all of it.

Freshly tended

• Agent-to-agent trust needs reputation systems, not just protocols Agentic AI
• Handoffs are the riskiest primitive in multi-agent design Agentic AI
• Task decomposition is where agent plans go to die Agentic AI
• Agent privacy is a data-flow problem, not a policy document Agentic AI
• Session state and long-term memory are different schemas Agentic AI

Now: building production-grade agentic AI reference systems and writing up the patterns as they prove out. What I'm focused on
