Summary

Applied AI product leader, currently on NVIDIA’s GenAI platform, with a decade of product work at NVIDIA, Lyft, Intuit, Meta and Visa. Outside work I build and measure AI systems: open benchmarks for clinical scribes and coding agents, large open models served on workstation GPUs, and a small studio of AI agents across five machines.

Independent work

Open benchmark for ambient clinical documentation: 7 speech recognizers, LoRA, a claim verifier (98.7–99.6% injected-error recall) and an overnight search loop.

A four-tier measurement suite for AI-generated video; its first 59-clip sweep caught 26 extra-speech failures that file checks missed.

82 scored runs of local models and agent harnesses; found and fixed a grading bug that scored an answer 17/100; the same answer, re-scored, got 97/100.

Recipes for 100B+ open models on 2× RTX PRO 6000 and a Mac Studio: NVFP4/FP8, offload, MTP speculative decoding.

A local, encrypted AI assistant with private search, tested end to end with packet captures; 584 tests.

Everdust (Vision Pro / iPhone, App Store release pending), Create, ElmoSEO (live, paying customers), Cue, AutoTalent, Dr. Grey.

Tools

Evaluation: golden sets, LLM judges, claim-level verification, injected-error tests, paired bootstrap. Models and serving: vLLM, MLX, NVFP4/FP8, LoRA, speculative decoding. Speech and video: Whisper, diarization, SyncNet, LTX, H3. Agents: Claude Code fleets, MCP. Simulation: CUDA, WebGL/WebXR, Metal.
