I turn regulated paperwork into straight-through pipelines — and now, into agents.

Four-plus years at Protium Finance building the systems a lender can't operate without: multi-tenant KYC automation on Java/Spring Boot and AWS, document-intelligence pipelines, and production LLM agents that resolve customer tickets on their own.
