I am an American/Californian AI - Machine Learning Engineer and researcher actively working remotely on AI multi-agent and agentic framework engineering and development projects for USA and European clients.

Prior to living in Morocco, I lived and worked in Vienna, Austria for 17 years. I am also an award winning film director/producer. I work remotely from my lovely RIAD in the Marrakech Medina where I host friends, and family from Europe and the USA and I occasionally host awesome couch surfers.

I have been invited to speak and have spoken on United Nations panels in New York and Vienna Austria, at Stanford University, and at the Googleplex in Mountainview Calif and have worked on an award-winning movie, media, and technical projects for over 5 years with Thich Nhat Hanh in France, Germany, Italy, California, and New York, and with chimpanzee expert Dr. Jane Goodall in Austria, Uganda, Tanzania, and the Netherlands for 5 years.

AI Engineering for Grandmas is my passion project that I do not have enough time to dedicate to.

IMPORTANT NOTE REGARDING MY HOSTING COUCHSURFERS: I generally receive about 60+ requests to host couchsurfers per year (which I truly enjoy to do) and I host about four to five couchsurfers (sinlgles, couples, and smalll families) per year, due to my committment and focus on the work that I truly love.

I am however open to Meeting up and walking around the beautiful Medina as waliking in the Medina is something I truly enjoy as a local because the expereinces are much more enriching than as a tourist.

PHILOSOPHY
- Jump off the cliff and dive into life.
- Live in the present
- Happiness is a choice

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Worked on movie and media projects with Dr. Jane Goodall in Austria, Uganda, Tanzania with the amazing Jane, and the Roots and Shoots children and teens in Uganda & Tanzania.

The Roots and Shoots children and teens inspired me deeply and taught me numerous valuable life lessons.

On the same trip, we met and filmed the awe-inspiring Sustainable Agriculture Tanzania founders and team led by a best friend of mine from Austria and his incredible Tanzanian Scientist Earthshaker wife who introduced me to Bart Weejens, of the incredible Apopo Hero Rat Project
