About Me

I build enterprise-grade GenAI platforms handling 250,000+ API requests daily for global companies like Sony across 7+ countries, improving operational efficiency up to 70%.

When I'm not building AI systems, you'll find me contributing to the likes of Open WebUI and Pydantic, or running a self-hosted infrastructure with dozens of services in my homelab.
