I started with a Computer Science degree from Florida Tech, then earned a Master's in Information Systems at Stevens Institute of Technology. My career began at SiriusXM, where I drove the integration of Pandora's backend systems for Artist Radio Stations.
At Spryte Labs, I led a team of engineers to build a no-code website builder that cut time-to-market by 10x and scaled the client base 5x. At Influence Mobile, I refactored the main app for cross-platform deployment.
Then came Blockdaemon: 3.5 years as Technical Product Manager for their cryptographic key management and blockchain infrastructure products. I architected the AWS Marketplace deployment, launched self-checkout, designed a sandbox environment, and automated validator workflows across 30+ blockchain protocols. Sales cycles shortened by 70%. Infrastructure costs dropped by 50%.
In late 2025, I built Runwell Systems. Not a dev shop. An AI infrastructure company. I designed a 32-agent orchestration system that captures every decision as a learning signal and improves itself with each deployment. After shipping 23 products as a PM in the industry, I built and deployed 8 of my own. One operator.
Years later, I rebuilt the same website builder I created at Spryte Labs with a full engineering team. This time, I built it solo using Claude Code, and now I deliver full production websites in under five minutes.

RUNWELL SYSTEMS
Nov 2025 - Present, Founder & Full-Stack AI Developer
Building AI-powered products and infrastructure for small businesses. From agent orchestration to turnkey SaaS platforms, every product is designed, built, and deployed end-to-end.
runwellsystems.com →Claude Code Proprietary Architecture
Designed and built a full development system from scratch: a CLI-driven agent orchestrator that coordinates 30+ specialized AI agents, each with its own tools, memory, and execution context. The architecture includes persistent project state, cross-agent handover protocols, automated QA pipelines, and a learning loop that captures patterns from every session. All infrastructure, deployment, and code generation flows through this system.
Agentic Business Toolbox
A modular platform where each business capability is powered by its own AI agent. A concierge agent handles customer conversations and lead qualification. An inventory agent tracks stock levels, detects trends, and generates reorder alerts. A marketing agent researches competitors, writes ad scripts, and produces video campaigns. A reputation scout monitors online presence across review platforms. Each agent operates autonomously with domain-specific tools, then coordinates through a unified dashboard.
Genie
A tool for bringing ideas to life. Genie runs a 10-phase cognitive loop: from understanding intent to generating full applications with tests, documentation, and deployment configs. 2,127 tests, 132 tools, 11 specialized agents. Phase 1 of app generation is complete; it can scaffold, build, and wire up working applications from a description. Currently experimental and running on a staging environment.
Shopimate
An AI shopping assistant that plugs into Shopify stores and lets customers find products through natural conversation. Built on vector search with fashion-specific embeddings, it indexes entire product catalogs and matches queries to items by visual similarity, description, and attribute filters. The system syncs inventory in real time, handles multi-store configurations, and serves results through a conversational interface that understands context across turns.

HOW I DELIVER
AT TEAM SCALE
Solo operators hit a ceiling. There's only so much you can hold in your head, so many files you can track, so many decisions you can remember.
I built claude-PM to remove that ceiling. It's a 32-agent system where each agent has a defined role: one researches, one codes, one deploys, one tests, one reviews, one handles security. They don't step on each other. They follow rules. They have budgets.
But the real power is that the system learns. Every commit, every bug fix, every architectural decision becomes a signal. Those signals get synthesized into patterns. 2,132 signals in. 249 reusable patterns out. The 50th project benefits from every lesson of the first 49.
The Adaptive Agent Loop captures signals automatically on every commit, runs daily synthesis across all repositories, and promotes agents from supervised to autonomous operation based on track record. Cross-project patterns are detected and proposed for review.
This is how one person delivers at team scale.
