What I'm looking for

I’m looking to lead AI and digital transformation from strategy to delivery—building scalable platforms, multi-agent workflows, and automation that improves performance, resilience, and operational efficiency while partnering closely with product and business teams.

I’m an AI-focused technology executive with 14+ years of experience leading engineering organizations, building scalable fintech and enterprise platforms, and driving AI-powered digital transformation initiatives.

As Chief Technology Officer at Alpha Trust AI, I lead cross-functional engineering and AI teams, architect and launch a multi-agent AI platform for workflow orchestration, and direct AI platform roadmaps that accelerate scalable enterprise AI delivery.

Previously at Equitick Financials, I led engineering and infrastructure for a high-volume fintech trading platform (50K+ daily active users), improved trading throughput and reliability, and implemented CI/CD and automation that increased development productivity by 300%. I bring hands-on expertise across AI systems, distributed infrastructure, and full-stack engineering to improve performance optimization, operational efficiency, and innovation velocity.
