01who

I build AI & automation systems people can trust.

AI & Automation Engineer in Costa Rica working at the intersection of Generative AI and AI Safety. I design cloud and RPA solutions with Microsoft Fabric, Copilot Studio and Python — keeping AI a tool that empowers people, not one that replaces them.

Off the clock I run local LLMs in a home lab to see how they really work, and lead game jams on weekends. I believe in a better world — and in building the systems that get us there.
