## What I build

I develop enterprise commerce systems that solve operational problems. My work covers the complete order lifecycle — from order capture and inventory visibility to fulfillment, shipping and returns. I connect orders, inventory, warehouses, logistics providers and AI into reliable, production-ready systems.

## Philosophy

Reliable over clever. Maintainable over hype. Observability built in. Business value first.

## Projects

### AI Storefront Assistant
A conversational AI assistant integrating Gemini LLM with IBM Sterling OMS using tool calling. Customers ask natural language questions about orders, inventory and shipping. The AI invokes OMS REST APIs to retrieve live data and return accurate answers grounded in current business data, not model hallucination.
