Hi, I'm Valerie — I build AI-powered web applications and production-grade AI systems for businesses that need more than a chatbot wrapper. What I deliver: RAG pipelines over structured and unstructured data, multi-agent orchestration with tool calling, and tiered LLM architectures that balance cost with quality. I've shipped real-time AI collaboration platforms, enterprise AI agents layered on legacy databases, and full-stack web applications serving thousands of users. My stack spans the full product lifecycle. On the frontend: React, Next.js, TypeScript, Tailwind CSS. On the backend: Node.js, Python, PHP, Java, REST APIs. On the AI layer: LangChain, LangGraph, OpenAI, vector databases (ChromaDB, Pinecone), embeddings, and semantic search. I build with observability in mind — every AI pipeline I ship is instrumented for latency, cost, and output quality. Where I'm especially useful: if you have a legacy FileMaker system and need to modernize it or layer AI capabilities on top of it, that's exactly what I specialize in. I'm a Claris FileMaker Certified Developer with years of experience building custom FileMaker solutions, Data API integrations, and migration paths to modern web stacks. I also hold a Tableau Desktop Specialist certification for data visualization work. I've completed an intensive AI Engineering Fellowship at Gauntlet AI, where I shipped production-grade RAG systems and multi-agent workflows in enterprise environments. I bring 7+ years of full-stack development experience and 1,000+ hours of AI-first development practice. What working with me looks like: fast communication, rapid prototyping (I regularly go from concept to working MVP in under a week), clean handoffs, and code that's built to maintain — not just to demo.
