What I Bring to the Table
Current Focus Areas
AI Consulting - Always Cool AI
Building observable AI systems you can trust. I bring the same discipline that reduced Oracle's outages by 58% to AI implementations.
- • Full-Stack Observability: Complete traceability using LangFuse for LLM observability, OpenTelemetry for distributed tracing, Phoenix for ML monitoring, and Grafana for visualization
- • Open Source First: Specializing in open-source observability tools that avoid vendor lock-in while maintaining enterprise-grade capabilities
- • Evaluation & Testing: Implementing Ragas and DeepEval for automated quality assessment alongside continuous monitoring
- • Compliance-Ready: Every decision traceable, every metric auditable — built for FDA, nuclear, and government requirements
Operational Leadership - Always Cool Brands
As Co-Founder handling Engineering & Finance, I run real operations in regulated industries — giving me practical insights into where AI actually creates value.
- • Real-world testing ground for AI automation in FDA-regulated environments
- • Deep understanding of supply chain and compliance requirements
- • Battle-tested solutions that have prevented millions in potential violations
- • Practical experience scaling from startup to production
Strategic Advisory - KeyBanc Mosaic Team
Advising investment professionals on how technology drives portfolio value and competitive advantage.
- • Technical due diligence and risk assessment
- • Technology strategy for sustainable growth
- • AI adoption roadmaps and implementation planning
- • Full-stack analysis from infrastructure to AI
Speaking & Workshop Topics
I share hard-won lessons from the trenches, not theory. Recent topics include:
- • "From POC to Production: LangGraph in Regulated Industries"
- • "LangFuse + OpenTelemetry: Building Observable AI at Scale"
- • "Open Source Observability Stack: LangFuse, Phoenix, Jaeger, and Grafana in Production"
- • "AI Compliance Without Compromise: FDA, Nuclear, and Beyond"
- • "Lessons from Hyperscale: What Oracle Taught Me About AI"
- • "The MCP Revolution: Building Interoperable AI Systems"
Recent Impact
Food Tech Startup: Reduced ingredient validation time from 12 months to 12 weeks using LangGraph-powered automation. Zero compliance violations in 18 months of operation.
Nuclear Energy Partner: Implemented 100% traceable AI decision system with complete audit trails. Every recommendation backed by source documentation and confidence scores.
Austin LangChain AIMUG: Growing from 0 to 1,600+ practitioners in 18 months. Regular hackathons, workshops, and production deployments emerging from our community collaborations.
