Experience

Quizzes App

A full-stack, React, Express.js, and PostgreSQL app. The app was dockerized and was deployed to DigitalOcean along with the database.

It used a folders-and-files structure inspired by clean code and had the configuration for continuous integration in GitLab.

Loretia: Narrative Continuity Linter

http://prod.loretia.com
I built a parser capable of turning any human-written story, including prose, branching narratives, novels, and scripts, into a structured format I designed.

I also built an engine that ingests that structured format, builds a series of DAGs, and detects factual and epistemological inconsistencies. This allows me to catch contradictions, plot holes, lies, conflicting claims, and more. Because the engine has the context of the entire story in a structured format, I can also generate a story bible, wiki, and relationship graphs, and derive the state of the world at any given point in the story.

Timbre: AI Call intelligence for Support Teams

https://autoace.loretia.com
Batch pipeline for customer-service call recordings. Upload audio, get back a flat JSON object of assertions about it: emotional tone and intensity, background noise presence/type/severity, audio quality, speaker overlap, long silence, and a confidence score.

Diarization | Silence/VAD | Transcription | Emotion | Noise tagging | Quality

Audio files are routed to different isolated queues (small, medium, large) based on duration and picked up by dynamically scaled worker sizes that match. This limits resource usage for short files while providing a safety margin for long ones.
