ShippedAbout
BackgroundI build AI that runs on the machine in front of me. Local retrieval systems, computer vision, and scrapers that handle the boring parts of a job hunt, all running on models through Ollama and LM Studio instead of a cloud API. The appeal is control. I know where the data goes and how every piece fits together, which matters more to me than the convenience of someone else's endpoint.
My path here was a Master's in AI at RMIT and a stint as an engineer at Virtusa before that, plus a lot of evenings spent getting a 14B model to behave on a laptop. The projects all carry Greek names, which began as a joke and became a rule I like: each tool is named for what it does, so Gnosis handles knowledge and Hestia runs the kitchen. I'm after AI, ML, or computer vision work in Melbourne where I can build things people actually use.
