I’m a forward deployed AI researcher and agentic AI engineer building systems that make autonomous behavior observable, replayable, and independently verifiable.

My work sits where agent infrastructure meets experimental science: record what happened, challenge the evaluator, preserve the evidence, and make every important claim reproducible by someone else.

My upstream work is discovered automatically across public repositories outside my account and included only when GitHub also lists me as a contributor. Merged PRs are the accepted-work measure; GitHub-indexed commits are a separate cached attribution signal. Stars and forks describe repository reach, not personal credit.

Owned public source is a separate signal: GitHub lists me as the repository owner. These projects are discovered automatically from my public, non-fork, non-archived repositories, then ranked by stars, recent activity, and GitHub-attributed commits. Ownership is not counted as upstream contributor credit.

Agentic Power asks a practical question: how much accepted skilled work can one hour of human direction command?

I design for that multiplier, but I won’t publish one without exposing its scope, evidence, assumptions, and uncertainty. My operating model is to delegate meaningful responsibility, compose the right tools and context, verify the result, then use the evidence to improve the next run.

AP ≈ 78.3× (operator-calibrated provisional estimate): approximately 11,201.4 skilled Human-Equivalent Hours, or 280.0 engineer-weeks, divided by 143.0 operator-estimated human-direction hours. The transparent scenario range is 49.3× to 126.2×.

The evidence base since January 2025 combines 429 merged upstream PRs with 6,532 authored, non-merge default-branch commits across 109 currently accessible repositories: personal, private, employer, and open-source alike. Work such as Gradia is included only as a redacted aggregate: no repository names, commit messages, code, links, employer, or client details are published.

The conservative GitHub activity proxy produces 1,675.5 direction hours because it assigns attention to individual commits and repository-months. Operator recall is 1.5–2.0 active direction hours per week; across 81.7 weeks, that calibrates the denominator to 122.6–163.4 hours, with 143.0 as the midpoint.

Direction includes active briefing, steering, reviewing, correcting, and coordinating. It excludes agent runtime and waiting. The calibration is operator-estimated rather than reconstructed from time logs, so this remains a transparent scenario, not a completed Full Evidence Audit.

• Direct: goals, constraints, acceptance criteria, and escalation rules stay explicit.
• Orchestrate: models, specialist agents, reusable skills, tools, memory, and loops become one working system.
• Verify: Gradia Guard, ProofSeal, and replayable evaluations separate completed work from plausible-looking activity.
• Improve: Wind Tunnel and Reward Loop turn measured failure into a better next run.

Can we trust the record?      → proof-bound execution evidence
Can we trust the score?       → adversarial evaluator stress testing
Can we reproduce the result?  → deterministic replay + committed artifacts
Can an agent remember?        → regression memory before commit

The thread through all of it is simple: an AI system should be able to show its work without asking you to trust the AI system.

• Gradia Universes — proof-carrying, interruption-capable synthetic agent worlds with deterministic replay.
• Gradia Reward Loop — oracle-witnessed reward-hacking experiments and a replay-verified paired-GRPO diagnostic.

I build communities as deliberately as systems. I lead AI Tinkerers Charlotte, a demo-first room for people shipping real AI systems, and serve as Regional Ambassador for the Agentics Foundation, connecting builders working on practical agentic AI.
