“Video editor/music editor-composer who shapes longform documentary storytelling through intentional cue selection and precise edits (builds, loops, stings, and tonal shifts), exemplified by a Mark Twain Connecticut piece using period-evocative piano/bluegrass/minor-key waltz to track narrative turns. Also re-scored a VH1 comedy sketch (game show parody) by replacing mismatched retro cues with modern dramatic "Millionaire"-style music using library hits/stings, and maintains consistent mixes via NLE templates with compression and limiting.”

“ML/Simulation engineer who productionized a Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning system for 30+ firms at Belt and Road Big Data Company, integrating research code into an enterprise backend via Dockerized deployment and scalable data pipelines on GCP/Vertex AI. Demonstrated strong production debugging by tracing apparent network timeouts to hardware memory exhaustion caused by software state-history garbage collection issues, and built custom reward functions to model complex market dynamics (entry/exit, pricing).”

“Co-founded academic-index (10,000+ users) and built a full-stack Next.js 14 document upload + client-side OCR + Gemini-powered analysis pipeline with strong production reliability (custom monitoring, retries, quality gates) and measurable gains (accuracy ~94%→98.5%, failures down ~60%). Also owns end-to-end biometric data visualization and a data-driven brand/UX overhaul at pre-seed health/performance startup Absolute Rest, with a background running a multi-client dev studio (Zen Digital).”

Delivered an enterprise cloud-migration enabler at UHG by implementing AD authentication and Terraform-based IaC for custom VM images while meeting 90-day InfoSec patch/rotation requirements, and drove a 20% lift in user consumption/retention by designing an interactive branded media portal experience for Sunkist.”

“Gameplay systems designer/engineer with shipped experience across mobile RPG and co-op/AAA shooters, including full ownership of an in-game economy and multiple end-to-end gameplay systems. Strong in data-driven Unreal (C++ + Blueprints) workflows, building flexible subsystems and using simulation/telemetry (Excel/VBA, metrics tools) to tune progression, monetization, and encounter balance.”

“Enterprise performance marketing/account leader who managed a finance advertiser end-to-end for ~3 years, maintaining 100% retention while expanding from 3 to 11 geographies and hitting 101% of annual targets. Strong in experimentation-led growth (risk-managed A/B tests for bidding strategy adoption) and in translating customer pain into scalable product improvements (automated daily reporting feature adopted across the platform).”
