Owning all technical implementation across a four-brand AI content operation — Amplify Intelligence, Houston AI Club, AI-First Work, and founder Leon Coe's personal brand. Founder serves as strategic lead; I architect, build, and ship every system in production. → Designed and deployed the Houston AI Authority Engine — a 7-stage signal intelligence pipeline (Ingest → Score → Extract → Draft → Humanize → Review → Publish). Last full run: 936 signals scanned, 158 scored, 20 publish-ready authority posts, zero pipeline errors. Scheduled autonomously via GitHub Actions. → Built the Houston Engine Operator Dashboard in React — live pipeline funnel, score distribution across publish/candidate/archive thresholds, source intelligence scoring, strategic pillar coverage, and real-time throughput snapshots. Used directly in stakeholder demos. → Engineered a multi-voice content automation engine producing long-form articles, LinkedIn posts, and brand assets across three distinct brand voices with zero persona bleed, after resolving an author-identity data issue. → Architected the Entity Authority layer: JSON-LD Schema Block Generator, Brand Voice Guardian, Entity Hygiene Monitor (100/100 score on first production run), and Knowledge Graph Corroboration Tracker. → Implemented cost-control guardrails (budget tracking, secret-management hardening) after diagnosing a 13-day silent pipeline failure caused by missing GitHub Actions secrets. Established observability patterns to prevent recurrence. → Orchestrate cost-optimized model routing across Claude, Gemini, and OpenAI via OpenRouter — selecting models per task based on latency, quality, and price tradeoffs. → Prototyped CoopBuddy — a voice-enabled AI NPC powered by ElevenLabs + Whisper + Claude API with autonomous behavior and a phased architecture roadmap.

Sole bartender for a 100+ cover nightly service at one of the world's premier culinary institutions — managing full drink production, happy hour, garnish and juice prep, and private event support. → Contributed to measurable venue growth: 6% increase in covers, 32% increase in sales, and 22% increase in per-person spend. → Selected for week-long service alongside Chef Musa Dağdeviren (Netflix Chef's Table, Istanbul) during a featured culinary residency; executed a signature Yeni Rakı cocktail program on his team. Chef relayed through a colleague: "we need 7 guys like him." → Maintained expert-level knowledge of spirits, wines, and cocktail craft while delivering consistent, attentive guest experiences that drive repeat business. → Operates concurrently with my work as a Generative AI Engineer — demonstrating the ability to execute at a high professional level while independently shipping production AI systems outside work hours.

B.S. Politics · University of California, Santa Cruz · 2022 Began in Computer Science — two years of programming, data structures, and statistics — before pivoting to Political Science. Graduated a quarter early. Developed strong analytical, research, and writing foundations that directly inform my approach to AI systems design.
