Flagship case studies
Start with four flagship case studies that best represent the portfolio.
This set is intentionally small: the clearest signal for platform architecture, evaluation rigor, and operator-facing product execution.
Edtech / AI platform
Creator AI Platform
A backend-first orchestration platform for learning-asset generation with staged discovery, retrieval, validation, and human review built into the product itself.
Document intelligence / service architecture
Intelligent Content Analyzer
A modular document intelligence platform that splits upload, retrieval, generation, and evaluation into services rather than one monolithic demo app.
Evaluation systems / multimodal
SlideBench AI Evaluation Workbench
A multimodal evaluation workbench for AI-generated slides and learning artifacts, combining deterministic metrics, retrieval, provenance checks, and judge-assisted scoring.
Finance / foundation models
AI Portfolio Advisory System
A robo-advisor platform that applies TabPFN to investor risk assessment and pairs it with objective-aware portfolio optimization.
The supporting layer then broadens into workforce intelligence, prompt optimization, enterprise RAG, policy forecasting, inventory planning, graph ML, climate analytics, and other applied systems.
Current work
Current work centers on orchestration, evaluation, and operator review.
AI platforms
Backend-first systems that connect retrieval, generation, validation, and human-in-the-loop review.
Evaluation and observability
Benchmarking, evidence checks, regression coverage, tracing, and structured scoring for model behavior.
Product interfaces
FastAPI, Streamlit, and internal-tool patterns that give operators usable surfaces instead of opaque models.
Decision domains
Education, workforce intelligence, finance, public health, and business analytics where systems need to drive action.
Recent writing
Writing behind the systems.
Technical notes on implementation choices, evaluation logic, and what changed between experiment and usable product.
