About

Solutions Architect.
Product Thinker.
Educator.

I don't build features — I design solutions that make things genuinely easier for the people using them. At Wowizer.ai (Predoole Analytics), I lead Team Wowizer (5 engineers), building enterprise Qlik products across the full platform stack: QlikView, Qlik Sense Enterprise, and Qlik Cloud.

From GDPR-compliance tools to AI bots to cloud migration accelerators — every product starts the same way: find where technology is making someone's work harder than it needs to be, then remove that friction.

"Solution to make life easy for the user."

AI Work

Building with AI — Before & Now

Building retrieval-augmented architectures before RAG became the industry term. Now going deeper with certified systems and production AI features.

Personal Project

RAG Pipeline

Built a Retrieval-Augmented Generation pipeline — grounding LLM responses in a custom knowledge base for accurate, context-aware answers instead of hallucinations.

Teams Bot — Conversational AI on Qlik

Natural language analytics inside Microsoft Teams. Users ask data questions in plain English — Qlik's Associative Engine retrieves and returns chart-level answers. RAG pattern, before RAG was the term.
