I've run supply chains at Amazon, CVS, and Clean Harbors. Then I built the AI that makes them smarter.

Twenty years of operational transformation. More than $100M in realized efficiencies. Five AI systems built and deployed in production. Engineer, operator, builder.

The Record

Selected work across enterprise transformation and AI deployment.

The AI Angle

Most executives talk about AI strategy from a distance. I build it. Five production systems, five industries, real measurable outcomes.

Builds, Not Manages

I have personally architected and deployed LLM-based agents, real-time data pipelines, IoT sensor integrations, and legacy ERP connectors. This is not vendor management. It is hands-on engineering.

The Lesson from Peakview Labs

Technical implementation is rarely the hardest part. Cultural adoption, incentive alignment, and human-in-the-loop design determine whether AI solutions stick. That lesson came from experience, not a report.

MIT Guest Lecturer

In early 2026, I presented case studies on AI-driven supply chain strategy to MIT graduate students. The ability to teach it means the ability to translate it to any organization.

The human layer is where most AI projects fail. It is where I start.
