I evaluate AI systems and build data products that improve outcomes.
What I'm looking for
I've evaluated 4,400+ LLM responses and agent trajectories across Claude, GPT-4, and Gemini, translating open-ended model behavior into measurable acceptance criteria, benchmarks, and failure taxonomies.
At AmpUp AI, I was the only analyst, owning product analytics across 650,000 events and building the PRD, data architecture, and entity-resolution pipeline for a 48-state operators database. I also cut LLM operating cost by 80% through prompt caching, batching, and parallel execution.
At Turing and Pareto AI, I've improved evaluation throughput while maintaining 96% QA acceptance, investigated model failures, and built Python validation checks that focus review time on meaningful model behavior.
