Systems thinker.
Human-first execution.

I work at the intersection of security operations, cloud infrastructure, and customer-facing systems — building things that are not just secure, but actually work for the people using them.

Projects

Support Article Audit Tool view on github →

Full-stack AI-powered dashboard built to manage a 94-article rebrand across two Zendesk help centres — production, not a demo. Agentic Claude API layer with tool-use: the agent queries a live article database, fetches Zendesk content, updates article status, and searches project notes across multiple tool-call rounds. Serverless backend on Netlify handling Claude API, Zendesk API, and Supabase reads/writes.

Retraflow — Prompt Engineering Contributor live product →

Contributed to the prompt engineering layer of Retraflow's two-stage LLM pipeline — a production AI customer support system deployed live on Iceline Hosting. Worked on Haiku-based validation prompts for jailbreak detection, escalation routing, and query reformulation. Tested and iterated across the full pipeline under real production constraints: token budgets, JSON output stability, confidence thresholds, and model tiering trade-offs.
