About Dylan
I build full-stack applications with integrated AI capabilities, from React frontends to Node backends to LLM-powered features. My focus is shipping AI that actually works in production: connecting LLMs to real data stores, designing effective prompts, and building interfaces that make AI useful.
Recent AI work includes integrating OpenAI and Gemini models into enterprise platforms, implementing RAG pipelines with vector search, and building LLM-to-database chat interfaces. I'm passionate about prompt engineering, workflow automation, and using AI tools to accelerate development itself.
Core stack: React, TypeScript, Next.js, Node.js
