Information About me

After escaping medical school, then teaching myself Japanese and software engineering, and then working at a Japanese software company, I can confidently say I love programming and I can teach myself just about anything!

Senior Full Stack Software Engineer and designated technical lead for AI-driven engineering acceleration, with 7+ years building production systems across .NET, Python, Vue, and AWS. At Morningstar, architected the team's AI-assisted engineering harness, worked with MCP (Model Context Protocol) servers, and owned an LLM-driven audio feature using Amazon Bedrock and Polly. Owns delivery end to end across distributed systems, REST and GraphQL APIs, Harness CI/CD, and cloud infrastructure.

I am also a results-driven leader with years of experience in talent planning, team coordination, coaching and development, and adapting to dynamic startup environments. Experiences across a diversity of fields has made me a unique and well-rounded candidate. I am committed to always improving myself and my work environment.

My Timeline

2025 - present

Full Stack Software Engineer - Morningstar

Designated lead for AI-driven engineering acceleration: architected the team's AI-assisted engineering harness (skill files, scoped context and token budgets, operating-mode guardrails) and mentored senior and principal engineers onto it as their default workflow.

Technical SME for MCP (Model Context Protocol) server architecture, from proposal through production release.

Owned end-to-end delivery of an AI audio feature: .NET services on AWS Bedrock and Polly for LLM-driven SSML synthesis, plus the Vue UI shipping transcript and smart-summary output.

Built a GraphQL API over a knowledge graph, improving content discoverability across the platform.

Designed Harness CI/CD pipelines in YAML for AWS Lambda and ECS deploys, cutting deployment time.

Built an automated Playwright test suite covering smoke, unit, and integration tests.

2019 - 2025

Software Engineer - Santoku Corporation / Rimm.ai

Led the rearchitecture of a monolithic on-premises application into AWS microservices on Docker and Kubernetes.

Owned custom haptic VR training systems for enterprise clients end-to-end as primary technical decision-maker.

2018 - 2019

English Language Teacher - Japan Exchange Teaching (JET) Program

Taught 1,000+ elementary and 500 middle school students, adapting curriculum using self-taught Japanese (JLPT N2).

2014 - 2018

Bachelor of Honors Science - Kinesiology - McMaster University

Agentic HarnessSystem

The work I'm proudest of isn't a repo, it's a system: the agentic engineering harness I built to make Claude Code repeatable across personal and delivery work — skill files, routing rules, operating modes, and token budgets. The console on the landing page is the short version; this is the whole catalog, with the runner-up match and the trigger conditions each skill advertises.

Portable project model

One operating model, every host

The same harness runs across ChatGPT, Claude Code, and Codex. I keep context narrow: one control center, one Project per business, one coordination chat, and one chat per distinct outcome. Work stays grounded in the repository, queue, and pull request; bounded parallelism uses isolated worktrees.

Explore the harness

1 Default writing agent per worktree

3 Maximum parallel agents when justified

1 Coordination chat per Project

01 Project stable business context
02 Main chat current coordination
03 Outcome chat one result at a time
04 Repo and PR durable handoff

This is a simulation, not a live agent. It runs the same keyword matching a router skill would apply to the descriptions and trigger conditions below — there's no model behind this page.

My Books and BlogsBooks and Blogs

Here are some relevant textbooks and blogs I've read over the years.

Clean Code: A Handbook of Agile Software Craftsmanship

Clean Code is divided into three parts. The first describes the principles, patterns, and practices of writing clean code. The second part consists of several case studies of cleaning up code—of transforming a code base that has some problems into one that is sound and efficient. The third part is the payoff: a list of heuristics and “smells” gathered while creating the case studies. The result is a knowledge base that describes the way we think when we write, read, and clean code.

Effective Java

Each chapter consists of several “items” presented in the form of a short, standalone essay that provides specific advice, insight into Java platform subtleties, and updated code examples. The comprehensive descriptions and explanations for each item illuminate what to do, what not to do, and why.

Cover of The Clean Coder by Robert C. Martin

The Clean Coder: A Code of Conduct for Professional Programmers

Robert C. Martin introduces the disciplines, techniques, tools, and practices of true software craftsmanship. This book is packed with practical advice–about everything from estimating and coding to refactoring and testing. It covers much more than than it is about attitude.

Core Java

This book is the definitive guide to writing robust, maintainable code in any version of Java up to V17. The book offers in-depth coverage of fundamental Java programming, including object-oriented programming, generics, collections, lambda expressions, concurrency, and functional programming.

Google Cloud Professional Cloud Architect certification badge

Fluent Python

This book teaches how to write effective, modern Python 3 code by leveraging its best ideas. The book guides you through idiomatic Python 3 features, Python's core language features, libraries, and teaches you how to make your code shorter, faster, and more readable.

Beyond the Basic Stuff with Python

Sweigart takes you through best practices for setting up your development environment, naming variables, and improving readability, then tackles documentation, organization and performance measurement, as well as object-oriented design. This book also goes over using the command line and other professional tools like code formatters, type checkers, linters, and version control.

Automate the Boring Stuff with Python

In Automate the Boring Stuff with Python, you'll learn how to use Python to write programs that do in minutes what would take you hours to do by hand. Once you've mastered the basics of Python, you'll create programs that effortlessly perform useful and impressive feats of automation.

Microsoft Learn: Powershell Automation

This course provides fundamental knowledge and skills to use PowerShell for administering and automating administration of Windows servers. In addition, students learn how to build scripts to accomplish advanced tasks such as automating repetitive tasks and generating reports. MS Learn is also a great resource to learn Coding languages such as GoLang.

Designing Data-Intensive Applications

This book examines the pros and cons of various technologies for processing and storing data. Difficult issues are explored such as scalability, consistency, reliability, efficiency, and maintainability. In addition, the book explores a variety of tools, including relational databases, NoSQL datastores, stream or batch processors, and message brokers.
