About Bryan

I build Azure AI systems for companies where documents are the core of the business: compliance, audit, contract review, structured data extraction.

Stack: Azure AI Foundry, Document Intelligence, AI Search, Copilot Studio, Graph API. Industries: finance, healthcare, legal, energy, government.

My focus is on reliability in regulated contexts. That means hallucination-resistant prompt design, confidence-based abstention, and structured outputs that hold up under scrutiny.

Recent work includes a NIS2 compliance audit tool on Azure AI Foundry and production Copilot Studio agents for client teams. I work on a project or retainer basis with EU clients.
