Summary

Business AI Architect with 20+ years across SAP and enterprise transformation — Accenture, UST, and SDG&E — and two years shipping production AI end-to-end. I design agentic systems that survive enterprise compliance review: deterministic cores, human approval gates, per-agent permission limits, provenance labels on every output, and audit trails built for regulated environments. Fluent on both sides — SAP BTP, RISE/GROW, clean core, Generative AI Hub, and Fiori on one; Claude API, MCP, RAG, and multi-agent orchestration on the other. AI exactly where it’s justified; deterministic everywhere else.
