Software Engineer

Visionary Solutions

Aug 2025 - Present

  • Independently developed a multimodal evidence-processing platform used in enterprise/government-facing customer demos, spanning GPU inference, entity resolution, event-driven delivery, chain-of-custody workflows, and multi-tenant API surfaces.
  • Designed graph/RAG infrastructure that became the core intelligence layer for customer-facing AI SaaS workflows, powering entity resolution, temporal modeling, graph search, and graph-backed user context.
  • Built an LLM-powered investigation assistant with Next.js, Claude/OpenAI APIs, 40+ tool-calling actions, source-linked evidence workflows, graph analytics, and human-in-the-loop write confirmation.
  • Engineered cross-service reliability through signed events, transactional outbox delivery, DLQs, replay workflows, idempotent processing, retries, circuit breakers, and cross-language event contracts.
  • Hardened multi-tenant security across services with org-scoped isolation, Postgres RLS, Neo4j tenant keys, service authentication, Cypher-injection fixes, PII redaction, and audit remediation.
  • Built React/TypeScript AI product workflows now rolling out to customers, integrating LLM chat, voice agents, Bayesian scoring, event consumers, and graph-backed context.

Unmanned Aerial Systems Engineering Co-op

PECO / Exelon

Sept 2023 - Mar 2024

  • Engineered Python automation with Pandas and API integrations, reducing reporting time from two hours to under 30 minutes while improving analytics accuracy.
  • Built Power BI dashboards for drone quality KPIs and optimized Python/Excel/Power BI data flows, cutting processing time by 75% and improving data accuracy by 20%.

Engineering Co-op

NAVSEA

Sept 2022 - Mar 2023

  • Improved submarine simulation algorithms and sensor modeling while documenting electrical/mechanical workflows for gas-sensor and chamber systems.

Research and Development Co-op

Saint-Gobain

Sept 2021 - Mar 2022

  • Led Python/MATLAB analytics and statistical modeling for materials experiments, identifying process improvements and potential 50% cost savings.

// PROJECTS

Selected projects

Repotoire

Rust, Code Graphs, Static Analysis

Built a Rust code-intelligence CLI that models repositories as knowledge graphs to catch duplicate logic, dependency cycles, security issues, and architectural drift.

Result: Adopted internally at Visionary Solutions as a developer testing tool.

ML Pothole Detection System

Python, YOLO, Raspberry Pi, PostgreSQL

Built an AI road-defect detection system combining YOLO edge inference, GPS-tagged capture, backend APIs, PostgreSQL, object storage, and a geospatial dashboard.

Result: Won Drexel Senior Design Championship.

SyncSphere Console

Python, ML Ranking, Event Ingestion

Built a hackathon-winning ML event recommendation platform using clustering and ranking to personalize HR engagement.

Result: Won the Wexford Challenge at Philly CodeFest 2025.
