I build AI-native products and systems that people can understand, trust, and return to.
- Consumer platforms used at scale
- AI-native workflow products
- Creator and music ecosystems
- Internal tools that reduce operational drag
- Interfaces designed for trust and repeat use
AI capability is no longer the bottleneck.
Trust, workflow design, and product judgment are.
The best AI products are not the ones that feel smartest. They are the ones that fit into how people actually work, think, and decide.
I focus on where trust shapes retention, where memory creates continuity, and where good workflow design reduces the friction that causes people to leave.

Custom Eval Infrastructure at With Him
How With Him uses a first-party policy engine, shadow traffic, and launch gates to keep assistant behavior tied to product policy.
Building Trustworthy AI Memory at With Him
Summarized continuity, user control, and bounded personalization, how With Him implements memory as a policy-gated pipeline instead of raw retrieval.
Most AI Products Optimize for Intelligence Instead of Trust
The gap between technically impressive AI and AI that users actually return to often comes down to one thing: trust architecture.
Open to conversations around AI-native product systems, workflow design, and trusted user experiences.
