Available for select AI / automation work · San Diego, CA

I build practical AI systems, internal tools, and public products that actually ship.

Full-stack programmer and AI automation engineer. Currently leading automation and AI work across UC San Diego — instructional assistants, Oracle workflow automation, RAG interfaces, and screen-aware assistants — while shipping independent iOS and Cloudflare products on the side.

Making AI useful where real work actually happens.

At UC San Diego I lead and contribute to automation and AI work across campus groups — reducing friction, improving workflows, and helping teams adopt AI in daily operations.

Recent threads: AI instructional assistant provisioning, RAG and natural-language interfaces, Oracle workflow automation, screen-aware desktop assistants, and agentic codebase research loops that evaluate and iterate on their own solution attempts.

Builder timeline

A trail of things that escaped the idea stage.

Curated from GitHub, local repos, live app links, and internal-use systems. This leaves out scratch repos and keeps the projects that had real users, operational value, or shipped-product intent.

  1. Ghost era

    Ghost for Beginners infrastructure

    Public repo

    Turned Ghost installs into repeatable beginner-friendly deployment work: Docker-based local testing and AWS/Packer automation instead of hand-built servers.

    • Docker
    • Packer
    • AWS
    • Ghost CMS
  2. Sports tools

    Fantasy baseball draft and data tools

    Public tools

    Built draft trackers, data scrapers, and fantasy baseball utilities around real decision loops: rankings, team strengths, and fast draft-day feedback.

    • JavaScript
    • Python
    • Scraping
    • LocalStorage
  3. Desktop apps

    Menu bar apps for live sports context

    Used personally

    Made small Electron menu bar apps for NBA and Lakers schedules, then pushed the same pattern into Cloud9 and esports monitoring: focused utilities that sat where the user already worked.

    • Electron
    • Node
    • APIs
    • macOS
  4. Data product

    CSGO scouting pipeline

    Private product system

    Built a full scouting stack around demo downloads, match scraping, serverless APIs, backend jobs, and a frontend for reviewing Counter-Strike player and team signals.

    • React
    • Serverless
    • Data scraping
    • Dashboards
  5. Work AI

    4DGPT and team knowledge assistants

    Internal use

    Started turning internal codebases and team knowledge into queryable assistants, including 4D-focused retrieval work and smaller GPT-style tools for domain-specific lookup.

    • Python
    • RAG
    • 4D
    • Internal docs
  6. Public iOS

    SwingDraw

    App Store

    Shipped a golf swing analyzer with frame review, drawing tools, path tracking, slow motion, side-by-side compare, and a no-subscription positioning.

    • Swift/iOS
    • Capacitor
    • Computer vision
    • Product Hunt
  7. Indie pipeline

    ListLens, SeatSafe, Sacred Pause, and niche app experiments

    Usable builds

    Built a run of focused local-first iOS products: reseller listing cleanup, wedding seating charts, prayer reminders, recipe workflows, and FODMAP support. The pattern was quick product wedges with real data models and release paths.

    • SwiftUI
    • StoreKit
    • Local-first
    • App Store ops
  8. Measurement

    App analytics dashboard

    Daily reporting

    Created a local-first metrics system that pulls Google Analytics, Search Console, App Store Connect, and sales data into static dashboards and markdown reports for shipped apps.

    • Node
    • GA4
    • Search Console
    • App Store Connect
  9. Private AI

    Local Photo Upscaler

    App Store

    Shipped private on-device photo enhancement for iPhone and iPad: upscaling, denoise, deblur, and a clear privacy promise with no photo uploads.

    • Swift
    • Core ML
    • Image processing
    • Privacy
  10. Voice AI

    Local Voice Notes

    App Store

    Shipped an on-device voice notes app with instant transcripts, smart summaries, search, no accounts, and no cloud processing.

    • Swift
    • Speech
    • Summaries
    • Local AI
  11. UCSD systems

    Instructor assistants and campus automation

    Operational use

    Built and connected Google OAuth, Drive folders, Onyx/RAG setup, class document sets, and assistant provisioning flows for student and faculty support.

    • OAuth
    • Google Drive
    • Onyx
    • RAG
  12. Ops automation

    Oracle, accessibility, and desktop-agent workflows

    Internal tooling

    Continued moving messy operational workflows into working tools: Oracle billing/product ordering, UCSD accessibility checking, model-improvement loops, desktop assistants, and installer workflows.

    • Cloudflare
    • Oracle
    • LiteLLM
    • Desktop automation
Stack

Comfortable from idea to shipped system.

AI systems

RAG, LangGraph, LLM interfaces, agent loops, local speech-to-text, prompt-to-tool workflows, evaluation harnesses.

  • Whisper
  • Local LLMs

Full-stack apps

Production web apps, dashboards, reports, integrations, OAuth flows, and analytics — front to back.

Product shipping

iOS launches, App Store workflows, pricing, analytics, launch copy, and privacy-first product decisions.
