Things I Build

Why I build I build to solve problems—the ones I see in my professional life and the ones I run into day to day. It keeps me close to the craft: understanding what users need, how they interact with tools, and how software can help people.

Enterprise AI · Working Prototype · Live on GCP

Semantic Engine (working name: Webster)

Governed, LLM-ready data infrastructure for enterprise semantic layers. Ingests warehouse schemas, uses AI to draft business definitions for every field, and routes them through human review into a browsable data dictionary. An MCP server then lets AI agents query structured business data safely and accurately. Designed as a lighter-weight alternative to heavyweight governance tools for mid-market teams. I authored the PRD and technical design and built the prototype.
