Hi! I'm Todd! (aka ToddLLM)

A seasoned software and DevOps engineer with academic roots and experience in the research arm of a large IT company, I bring a broad set of skills to solving problems for clients.

My expertise ranges from cloud, docker, and Kubernetes to LLMs, generative AI, and RAG.

🧑‍💻 My recent years have been dedicated to going deep on all things AI and building in a long game way. Specifically, a garage to run local AI with my kids, consulting and building with whatever opportunity is most serious.

🤖 I've also been doing some consulting and product building in the generative AI space. Currently all of my free time is going to AI Kat.

📚 My academic backgroud comprises a Bachelor's in Software Engineering, Master's in Computer Science, and a Ph.D. in Engineering Science

I'm based near Albany, NY🔥

🚀 I'm SO excited about AI Engineering because...

...I feel like the large language model is the persona that I resonate with most and really enjoy thinking through the problems in this space. I have already met and worked with so many great people in this community and I am invested in paying it forward so that we continue to grow as a community of builders.

🆘 I can help course participants with...

...getting comfortable with the ops side especially. A lot of people struggle with DevOps and operations in general, so I can help get people to a better starting point. As someone who has been through the course, I can also help with concepts and thinking through various considerations and tooling.
