AI systems architect at Stealth AI Infrastructure Startup building agent workflows, retrieval, and decision support.

United States
Message

At Stealth AI Infrastructure Startup, I designed and built an AI-native platform for agentic workflows, context retrieval, and decision support. I implemented multi-agent orchestration and evaluation harnesses across TypeScript/Node.js and Python/FastAPI.

At Provenance AI, I contributed to a real-time Generative AI platform integrating model orchestration, copyright detection, and Web3-based provenance tracking. At Element Ventures Inc., I designed and implemented real-time, cross-platform facial recognition and identity verification for mobile and web.

At Bloomberg, I was the lead engineer behind Bloomberg Radio+ for iPhone, which Apple selected as Best Finance Application of 2011 and which received the Bloomberg Business & Technology Innovator Award. At Challengers Capital, I developed investment analytics and an algorithmic trading platform.

I earned a Ph.D. in Computer Science from USC and previously served as an Adjunct Associate Professor at Shanghai University, Joint Program with University of Technology Sydney. My research covered blockchain, deep learning, and information systems, with two highly cited publications.
