Agent Engineer at Nudge AI.

When a patient calls the clinic, an agent I built picks up in under half a second. Fifteen-plus run in production on LiveKit and ElevenLabs, across clinics in multiple states.

About

Mostly, I build things that talk.

Right now that's voice AI at Nudge in San Francisco — receptionists answering real patient calls for healthcare clinics across multiple states. When someone calls needing medical help, the bar isn't “pretty good” — it's perfect or it's nothing.
