I build enterprise AI agents, RAG platforms, and backend services using Azure OpenAI, Semantic Kernel, and .NET.

At Cornerstone OnDemand, I build enterprise AI applications, MCP tools, and access-aware RAG workflows that connect Azure OpenAI, Anthropic Claude, SharePoint, ServiceNow, Weaviate, and SpiceDB. I also contribute to an Internal Mobility Agent that creates personalized learning paths from employee skills, proficiency, and interests.

Previously at Accenture, I delivered AI-enabled backend applications and microservices for HR and Rewards workflows using C#, .NET Core, Python, SQL Server, and REST APIs. I've improved high-concurrency query performance by up to 30%, deployed services across Azure and AWS, and resolved 40+ production defects.
