Engineer across AI, quantitative finance, and data infrastructure —
with a second life in the physics of sound.
I build complete AI-data products end to end — and, crucially, I own the compute that runs them: a private multi-node GPU mesh where models are fine-tuned and served at a fraction of cloud cost, with data that never leaves the box. Ten-plus years spanning applied AI, quantitative markets, data engineering, and full-stack systems — usually as the person who both makes the call and ships the thing.

I started at Berklee (Electronic Production & Design — essentially programming — with a minor in electronics & acoustics, cum laude), came up through C, DSP and Csound in the lineage of the people who wrote the book on it, and carried that signal-processing instinct forward: music-information retrieval and embedded work, then early machine learning, then — chasing continuous, defensible data — into quantitative finance, and now into games and audio R&D. Different domains, one habit of mind: model the system honestly, then make it fast, cheap, and real.
- Own the metal. A private RTX-3090 GPU mesh on a Tailscale network — fine-tuning, VRAM-safe serving, cross-site redundancy. Private models, cost-optimized, no cloud lock-in.
- Eval-first & honest. My methodology work is citable, reproducible, and candid about where it stops — negative results included. I'd rather show I understand the ideas than hide the gold.
- Polymath by design. Audio · DSP · acoustics · quantitative markets · AI · data engineering · games — the range is the point.
Work I've authored or provided the data science, analysis & visualization for — each with a permanent, citable DOI (auto-imported by Zotero / Mendeley, indexed across the scholarly graph).
