Live web app · Python, LLM pipeline, RAG, model eval, local LLM, statistical modeling

• Built a product that grades finance influencers on what their stock picks actually return, not their follower count, owning it from problem to live product. Under the hood: an LLM pipeline that extracts and version-controls each real ticker call, scored against sector benchmarks with empirical-Bayes shrinkage and false-discovery correction so the rankings are statistically honest. A retrieval-augmented resolver ties each call to a real security and gates auto-apply on retrieval confidence.

Live business app · Cloudflare Workers, JavaScript, Stripe, Twilio, RAG, vision models

• Replaced the SaaS CRM for my own lawn care business with an operations app I designed and shipped with AI coding agents, defining every business rule as product owner, from pricing tiers and visit schedules to payment policies. Live since September 2026 with Stripe card and ACH payments, two-way SMS, and automated state pesticide-application records, plus a retrieval-augmented assistant that answers from product labels with citations, scored against a 25-question known-answer eval.
