About Me

I'm an AI builder and consultant with deep, hands-on experience across the full spectrum of modern AI - from multi-model LLM integration and agentic workflows to self-hosted infrastructure and custom hardware builds. I work with proprietary models (Claude, GPT-4, Gemini, DeepSeek) and open-source models (Llama, Mistral, Qwen) daily, and I've built production systems on top of all of them.

My work spans custom software development, complex automation pipelines, RAG and vector search systems, AI image and video generation, and full-stack self-hosted infrastructure. I run a 40+ container Docker stack, manage a multi-node home lab with VLAN segmentation and Tailscale mesh networking, and have built multiple custom computers including a Ryzen 9 / RTX 4090 workstation for local AI inference.

I also consult with clients on AI projects, present at summits and conferences, and publish the Century Report - a daily AI newsletter powered by a 9,000+ line automated pipeline that discovers, ingests, synthesizes, and publishes long-form analysis of the AI landscape. I also produce the Open Builder Bar podcast, where an AI agent I built participates live on-air.
