Generative AI · Security · Delivery

Stay grounded.Move faster.

Generative-AI systems that survive contact with production — secured on the way in, deployed on real infrastructure, and proven on my own products before they go anywhere near yours.

Most consultants will hand you a strategy deck about AI. I hand you something that runs.

Small on purpose
You talk to the person doing the work. No account manager in the middle, no bench of juniors learning the stack on your budget.
Shipped, not theorized
Every capability on this site points at a system I have already built and run. If I have not shipped it, I do not sell it.
Secured on the way in
Two decades of security work means the guardrails go in during the build, not in a remediation project six months after launch.

Four pillars

One anchor. Four ways to move.

Each pillar is a discipline I practice, with a shipped system behind it. Pick the one that matches the problem in front of you — you do not have to buy all four.

Start here

Secure Acceleration

Somebody in your company has already wired an AI tool into customer data, and nobody assessed it. I find that, fix it, and give you a way to keep shipping AI without opening a hole: prompt-injection and data-leak exposure, AI governance that people will actually follow, and compliance for the workflows AI now touches.

Proof a multi-tenant compliance platform prototype with database-level tenant isolation, mandatory MFA, and immutable access logs — built for operators who need those controls verifiable, not just claimed.

Secure Acceleration

Scalable Infrastructure

RAG pipelines, pgvector, embeddings, model APIs, Supabase and Vercel deployments, Langfuse tracing. A retrieval system that is actually useful knows when to refuse and shows you where the answer came from.

Proof Cast Sense — a source-grounded coaching product running on this exact stack.

Scalable Infrastructure

Brand Traction

Content and demand engines that keep running when you are busy: automated intake, an AI cleanup pass, drafts staged for a human to approve. Generate-then-review, where the review step is a designed feature and not a bottleneck.

Proof The National Angler — an automated content flywheel with a mandatory human review gate.

Brand Traction

Controlled Momentum

Agentic and automated delivery workflows that move fast without going off the rails — backlog to production, with the discipline that keeps them reliable once nobody is watching.

Proof this build log. That is the entire argument.

Controlled Momentum

Who this is for

Two kinds of problems I take on.

Owners who want it built, not explained

SMB and mid-market operators who are done with strategy decks and want the workflow actually running inside the business. You describe the process, I build the thing that does it.

Supplier-diversity paths

Government and enterprise programs looking for a small, fast, technically deep vendor. This is a service-disabled veteran owned shop and the person on the contract is the person doing the work.

Recent work

The build log is the resume.

No invented case studies here. These are systems I built and run.

Running Scalable Infrastructure

Cast Sense — source-grounded coaching product

Answers come from a curated source library and live conditions data, not from a model’s memory. Retrieval over embedded sources with pgvector, and a hard rule: when the sources do not support an answer, it says so and shows what it does have.

  • pgvector
  • Supabase
  • Vercel

Prototype Secure Acceleration

Multi-tenant compliance platform

A working prototype for organizations that need tenant isolation and access controls to be verifiable, not just claimed — database-level tenant isolation, mandatory MFA and role-based access, and immutable read, write, export, and destruction logs. Core features run and are tested; not yet built out to a full production release.

  • Multi-tenant isolation
  • MFA + RBAC
  • Immutable audit log

The National Angler content flywheel

Automated intake pulls source material in, an AI pass cleans and structures it, a dedupe step kills repeats, and drafts land staged for review. Nothing publishes until a human approves it. Flo Coast Fishing runs on the same flywheel.

  • Automated intake
  • AI cleanup pass
  • Dedupe
  • Human review gate

Custom dashboards, built and shipped fast

When a client needs visibility into a process instead of a spreadsheet, I build the dashboard, connect it to the real data, and get it in front of them — usually in days, not sprints.

  • Rapid build
  • Live data
  • Fast iteration
