Core Skills
Selected AI Projects
RAGnosis
Case studyEight-run RAG benchmark over a synthetic clinical dataset containing 1,200 patients, 2,200 appointments, and 30 evaluation questions. Evaluated query rewriting, small-to-big retrieval, aggregate rollup documents, and BGE and Jina reranking; retrieval MRR increased from 0.406 to 0.792 and the best documented answer-quality score reached 4.622/5.
Stack: Python, Chroma, Ollama, Hugging Face, OpenAI-compatible embeddings, BGE Reranker, Jina Reranker
Pretendo
Case studyDeployed LLM routing application with a Next.js client, FastAPI service, OpenRouter integration, Pydantic validation, backend-owned prompts, provider timeouts, browser SQLite persistence, analytics, automated checks, and Vercel deployment.

Professional Experience
Applied LLM Projects
Independent AI Engineer
Remote | Jun 2026 to Present
- Designed and implemented RAGnosis, an eight-run RAG benchmark over a synthetic clinical dataset containing 1,200 patients, 2,200 appointments, and 30 evaluation questions, improving retrieval MRR from 0.406 to 0.792 across the tracked experiment.
- Evaluated query rewriting, small-to-big retrieval, aggregate rollup documents, and BGE and Jina reranking through reproducible Python pipelines, archived configurations, and an interactive report.
- Reached a best documented answer-quality score of 4.622 out of 5; documented synthetic data, a limited evaluation set, one run per configuration, best-of-N selection, and LLM-based judging as study limitations.
- Built and deployed Pretendo, a Next.js and FastAPI LLM application using OpenRouter model routing, Pydantic validation, backend-owned prompts, provider timeouts, browser SQLite persistence, analytics, automated checks, and Vercel deployment.
- Built additional local multimodal and synthetic-data workflows using Gemma GGUF, llama.cpp, Whisper, Kokoro TTS, Ollama, Gradio, and Faker.
Technologies: Python, FastAPI, Pydantic, RAG, Chroma, Ollama, Hugging Face, OpenRouter, Next.js, React, TypeScript, Gradio, llama.cpp.
