🚀 About Me

I'm a full-stack AI engineer who spent years as a cardiac surgery ICU, pediatric ICU, and ER nurse before I ever wrote code. Now I build the AI systems clinicians actually need — because I've been the person on the other end of a bad prior auth call, a missed handoff, or a documentation system that got in the way of patient care.

• 🔭 Currently building autonomous, evaluation-first AI agents for prior authorization and clinical workflows
• 🌱 Deepening MCP, LangGraph orchestration, and agent evaluation (Langfuse, Evidently AI, LLM-as-judge)
• 💡 Interested in: healthcare AI, autonomous agents, agent evaluation & observability, FHIR interoperability
• 🎯 Goal: build AI systems clinicians can actually trust — not just accurate in a demo

🏆 Featured Projects

🩺 AuthPass

A clinician-facing voice agent that automates prior authorization requests. Validated by a health-tech CEO who asked to scale it nationwide after seeing it work on real clinical scenarios.

xAI Grok Voice LangChain FastAPI Next.js FHIR R4

🔁 ClearPath

An autonomous prior-auth agent built to be trusted, not just accurate. Confidence scoring routes uncertain decisions to human review; retry logic and full audit trails make every autonomous decision traceable.
