AI Engineer · App Builder · Problem Solver
I build production AI apps with Claude, Python, and computer vision — shipping real tools that solve real problems.
Honolulu, Hawaii
About Me
I spent over 25 years managing complex construction projects in Hawaii — coordinating crews, reading technical blueprints, and making high-stakes decisions under pressure. Then I discovered AI engineering and never looked back.
In 2025 I earned my IBM AI Engineering Professional Certificate and immediately started shipping: a Claude-powered skincare app, an AI travel platform with Vision ID verification, an AI legal assistant, an AI farm monitor, an AI job agent, a fraud detection app — and counting.
I bring the discipline of a project superintendent and the curiosity of someone who genuinely loves this field. My background means I understand real-world constraints, not just theory — and I build tools that work in production.
Projects
All projects are live and deployed — not just demos.
Multi-page skincare app with 7-step onboarding, Claude Vision skin analysis, personalized AM/PM routines, progress tracking, and an agentic AI advisor loop with 5 custom tools.
AI-powered job hunting assistant. Guides users through 5-step onboarding, parses their resume with Claude, finds job matches, then generates a custom-tailored resume AND cover letter for every single application.
Pro se court filing assistant powered by an agentic Claude loop with legal research tools. Helps self-represented litigants understand their case, draft motions, and navigate court procedures — no lawyer required.
Travel booking platform with AI-powered identity verification. Claude Vision compares a selfie against a government ID and returns a confidence score — all processed client-side, images never leave the device.
AI crop management assistant that monitors plant health, pest threats, soil conditions, and seasonal schedules. Uses an agentic Claude loop with farm-specific tools to generate actionable treatment plans.
AI-powered grocery assistant that builds smart shopping lists, maps the fastest in-store route using geolocation, and suggests substitutions — cutting shopping time in half.
On-device fraud detection app that analyzes messages, emails, and URLs for scam patterns using both Claude AI and offline rule-based detection. Flags phishing, social engineering, and financial fraud in real time.
All-in-one life management app covering schedule, legal deadlines, finance, home maintenance, and work shifts. Unified timeline across all life areas. Bill photo scanner uses Claude Vision to read a photo of any bill and auto-add it to your schedule.
Daily briefings on every AI model release — scored and ranked for builders. Live comparison dashboard across GPT, Claude, Gemini, Llama, and Mistral. No noise, just what matters for shipping.
Car repair cost calculator with right-to-repair state law data. Know the fair price range before walking into a shop — and find independent mechanics near you via live map data.
Find authentic tacos and Latin food spots across America using live map data. Explore regional scenes from Hawaii to NYC, save favorites, and plan a taco crawl route.
Always-on conversational AI agent with live web search via Perplexity Sonar. Designed for ambient use — quick questions, real-time answers, zero data retention.
Real-time computer vision system that monitors construction sites for PPE compliance — hard hats, vests, goggles — and auto-generates violation reports. Built with 25 years of on-site domain expertise baked into the model.
