Governing design principle

Arithmetic and reconciliation stay in deterministic code. The model is confined to extraction and classification.

Every system below is built so that an incorrect model inference cannot post to a ledger, file a return, or answer a policy question it does not have grounds for.

Selected work — Welltower Inc.

Eight production systems, six departments.

Each one owned end-to-end, from department requirements through UAT, deployment, logging, and failure monitoring.

Webb — enterprise HR assistant

Human Resources · ChatGPT custom GPT · OpenAI Compliance API · Snowflake

The company-wide HR assistant, migrated off a legacy Slack bot and hardened against adversarial use.

85%
fewer HR support tickets
Read the Project Details Close
  • Cut HR support tickets 85% by migrating the company-wide HR assistant from a legacy Slack bot to a ChatGPT custom GPT — 700 users (78% of a 900-employee organization), 200 monthly active users, 100+ daily queries, and the #1 most-used custom GPT company-wide for six months.
  • Held the assistant secure through emerging adversarial use across successive prompt revisions — injection red-flag patterns, identity lock, silent refusal of system-prompt disclosure, web search narrowed to checklist-gated cases, and the connector scoped to user identification.
  • Engineered out the silent-wrong-answer failure mode — a location gate withholds answers until the employee's region is known, routing only accurate information, and barring extrapolation from partial documents.
  • Shipped every revision defect-free by gating release on a regression suite and a 10-day Human Capital hallucination audit — cases pinning both correct and specific wrong responses across policy, regional routing, refusals, and injection attempts.
  • Built the AI governance layer on the OpenAI Compliance API, landing conversation data in Snowflake with a review frontend and human-in-the-loop flagging, now HR's standing weekly review.

Journal entry tie-out automation

Accounting · n8n production workflows

Payroll cash tie-out, journal entries, and suspense clearing — designed so the automation is structurally incapable of mutating the general ledger.

~1 FTE
recovered annually
Read the Project Details Close
  • Recovered ~1 FTE annually by cutting payroll tie-out from 8 people at 6 hours weekly to a single exception reviewer at 4–5 hours — implementing payroll cash tie-out, payroll journal entries, and suspense item clearing as n8n production workflows, after documenting 25–30 undocumented processes across 5–6 departments as machine-readable specifications.
  • Designed reconciliation workflows structurally incapable of mutating the general ledger — phase one proposes changes (missing chart-of-accounts entries, mapping corrections) for human approval rather than applying them, making an incorrect automated inference impossible to post.

Use tax compliance automation

Tax · n8n · Thomson Reuters tax code data

Use tax determination for state, city, and county codes across 3,000+ invoices monthly and 1,500+ properties.

~$100K
penalty exposure resolved
Read the Project Details Close
  • Resolved approximately $100K in use tax penalty exposure and established the standing control preventing recurrence across all operating jurisdictions — automating use tax determination for state, city, and county codes for 3,000+ invoices monthly across 1,500+ properties.
  • Eliminated a hallucination risk unacceptable in a compliance calculation — rebuilt an Azure live-search-per-line-item design as an n8n workflow grounded in Thomson Reuters tax code data: a reference-data lookup handles known commodities, unmatched lines escalate to a higher-capability model returning a cited proposal, and line-total mismatches route to human review.

Insurance requirements extraction and compliance benchmarking

Legal · Amazon Bedrock · document intelligence

Replaces clause-by-clause insurance review in acquisition diligence, then benchmarks every dollar limit against historical deal statistics.

Auditable
every limit traced to its source clause
Read the Project Details Close
  • Replaced manual clause-by-clause insurance review in acquisition diligence for the Legal team — document-intelligence workflows read purchase and sale agreements and extract every requirement with its dollar limits, then a deterministic benchmark engine flags each limit green, yellow, or red against historical deal statistics.
  • Made every extracted limit auditable to its source clause — a three-stage LLM chain on Amazon Bedrock handling deal context, clause extraction with verbatim quotes and page citations, then normalization of free-text limits onto standard coverage types, each stage grounded with anti-hallucination rules.

Scope creation tool

Capital projects · guided generation · Word formatting preservation

Turns a project manager's answers into complete construction scope-of-work documents. Used by every project manager on the team.

1,022
item scope corpus across 41 trade categories
Read the Project Details Close
  • Replaced manual per-project drafting for the capital projects team with a guided generation tool that turns a project manager's answers into complete construction scope-of-work documents — now used by every project manager on the team.
  • Kept every generated spec traceable to precedent and correct for its site — grounded generation in a 1,022-item scope corpus and 16 templates across 41 trade categories, conditioned per trade on a 2,384-property master dataset, then an automated climate and wind pass rewrites specs for the building's environment.
  • Preserved Word numbering, styles, and run-level formatting through an LLM rewrite — a similarity-based merge re-aligns generated text onto the original paragraph objects and keeps the original wherever confidence is low.

Performance view chat — natural language to SQL

Investment · Snowflake connector · Claude plugin

Removed the Investment team's dependency on the data team for ad-hoc analysis. The Streamlit UI was later retired for a Claude plugin.

1,500+
properties, queried in natural language
Read the Project Details Close
  • Built a natural-language-to-SQL system for the Investment team across 1,500+ properties, removing their dependency on the data team for ad-hoc analysis — later retiring the Streamlit UI for a Claude plugin pairing a Snowflake connector with skills encoding the team's output formats and report structures, so analysis runs directly in chat.

Property site map — data-driven rent setting

Asset Management · custom GPT · Excel deliverable

Generates review-ready Excel site maps for unit-level rent setting. Now the standing pricing framework for asset management.

A/B tested
beat the incumbent on occupancy, income, and preference
Read the Project Details Close
  • Built a custom GPT generating review-ready Excel site maps for unit-level rent setting — a controlled A/B test across two structurally identical halves of one property showed generated pricing beat the incumbent on occupancy, rental income, and resident preference; asset management adopted it as the standing pricing framework.

TalkFurther call center analytics

Operations · in-house call analysis · Power BI

Replaced a third-party batch transcript vendor with daily internal review of 3,000+ calls across 50+ properties.

15%
additional leads recovered from dropped conversations
Read the Project Details Close
  • Recovered 15% additional leads from dropped conversations and drove a 3% revenue increase across 50+ properties — replaced a third-party batch transcript vendor with an in-house AI analysis system moving 3,000+ calls to daily internal review, now property managers' standing KPI via Power BI dashboards linking call topics to occupancy and conversion.

90%
BERT similarity, 89% precision and recall
Read the Project Details Close
  • Reached 90% BERT similarity and 89% precision/recall with a LangChain RAG system — semantic graph clustering and overlapping chunking that preserved context across boundaries, over a FAISS and Pinecone embedding layer holding 85% cosine similarity.
  • Reduced response latency by 35% with a distributed inference and caching layer, and cut model cost via semantic routing across OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google models — evaluated on hallucination rate and response accuracy, with Llama 2 (7B) QLoRA fine-tuning cutting compute requirements by 50%.
