AI Full-Stack Engineer at Retreat, where I cut hotel RFP response times by 40% and build LLM-powered products.

At Retreat, I built AI-based RFP automation features that cut hotel response time by 40% and reduced manual sourcing work by 70%. I integrated LLM pipelines for document generation, pricing analysis, and hotel matching.

I now lead AI feature development at Retreat, including the Sparkling Proposal Generator, which improved proposal processing speed by 35%. Working with the CEO on technical strategy, I helped cut prototype-to-production time by 2x.

As a freelance consultant, I took SB Agent AI, a sports betting RAG chatbot, from system design to production for an international client. I set up Qdrant vector search and custom embedding pipelines, then hosted it on GPU-optimized RunPod infrastructure.

Earlier, I built SaaS modules for FMS, including a React Native driver app with real-time load updates and in-app communication. I also led a frontend team at Syscomatic building SaaS products for early-stage startups.
