Engineer, educator, and builder with 6 years shipping web applications — from custom WordPress themes and government-facing tools for the Florida Department of Transportation (via Global-5) to no-code AI agents on the Internet Computer. Currently Evangelist at DFINITY, teaching non-coders to build with Caffeine AI, and founder of Armacore (2026) — AI that actually gets things done: encrypted memory, intelligent recall, automations scheduled by phone or chat, running 24/7.

Experience

Sep 2025 — Present

Evangelist

DFINITY Foundation · Full-time · San Francisco, CA

  • Build internal tools and launched Caffeine apps in the app market — building in public and showcasing what's possible on the Internet Computer. Stack: Motoko canisters, TypeScript + React front-ends.
  • Design AI automation setups and voice-agent pipelines — Claude Code for agent tooling, Deepgram for speech-to-text, ElevenLabs and Cartesia for text-to-speech.
  • Manage the Discord community and provide Caffeine AI support — escalate product issues to the engineering team.
  • Run vibe-coding workshops teaching non-coders to ship real web apps using Caffeine AI; 1-on-1 calls, tutorials, AMAs and live demos.
  • Helped colleagues install OpenClaw safely and ran an OpenClaw-powered bot that managed the Discord — this hands-on experience exposed OpenClaw's degrading-memory problem and inspired me to build Armacore (context-aware recall, not context-dumping).
  • Collect builder feedback and channel it to product + engineering; identify key user groups and help them get the most out of the platform.
Dec 2024 — Sep 2025

Senior Full Stack Developer

Global-5 · Full-time · Remote (agency; client: FDOT — Florida Dept. of Transportation)

  • Lead developer on FDOT engagements through Global-5 — custom maps, internal systems, and government-facing web tools.
  • Interviewed and onboarded new developers, enhancing team capabilities and cohesion.
  • Managed the full stack — back-end, front-end, and server administration on Plesk and shared-hosting platforms including SiteGround.
  • Authored comprehensive technical documentation, streamlining knowledge sharing within the team.
Aug 2021 — Dec 2024

Full Stack Developer

Global-5 · Full-time · Greater Orlando (agency; client: FDOT)

  • Built and maintained road-safety alert systems for FDOT (via Global-5): pulled upcoming-closure data directly from construction engineers and emailed subscribers along the I-4 corridor with detailed detour maps I drew in Illustrator.
  • Built the I-4 Express Lane Trip Planner (vanilla JS + Google Maps API, Bootstrap, Webpack/Babel) — helps drivers pick entry + exit points given that express-lane exits don't align with general-use exits; directional filter (East/West) surfaces available exits nearest-to-furthest.
  • Shipped custom WordPress themes — including ELC (elcseminole.org), 2025 — and downloadable WordPress plugins.
  • Programmed applications in PHP, MySQL, and JavaScript with a focus on abstraction, stability, and reuse.
  • Built monthly email newsletter templates compatible across email clients; produced Illustrator + InDesign maps and supporting handouts for I-4 closures.
  • Deployed and maintained client sites on SiteGround and other shared-hosting platforms.
Apr 2021 — Aug 2021

Frontend Developer

Ascend Inbound Marketing · Full-time · Valdosta, GA

  • Partnered with product designers and managers to design user interactions in applications.

  • Worked on a custom WordPress theme (PHP) converted into a HubSpot theme.

  • Maintained, managed, and built WordPress sites for senior-living-community clients.
