July 2026 - Present

MTS, Developer Relations
at Liquid AI

Enabling developers to build fast, affordable, private AI that runs on-device, even offline, with Liquid AI's open-weight models. I combine technical depth, marketing expertise, and GTM vision to create practical resources, educate and support technical audiences, and connect developer engagement to business opportunities.

Community & Events

I lead community events and hackathons end to end, and coordinate C-suite events and conference participation. I develop technical demos and hands-on content for booths and hackathons, teach participants and the public how to use Liquid Foundation Models (LFMs), and provide technical support to help them build and troubleshoot.

My work also covers logistics, sponsorships, event promotion, and social media content capture. I send targeted outbound invitations to attract attendees who match our ideal customer profile (ICP), then hand off leads and opportunities to GTM for follow-up. I also represent Liquid AI as a speaker and panelist at developer and industry events.

Events I Organize

  • On-Device AI Hackathon: Cleared for Takeoff ✈️ Upcoming

    Organizing the hackathon with Qualcomm, where I'll co-lead a hands-on workshop on running Liquid Foundation Models (LFMs) on IQ9 devices. I'm also managing logistics, event promotion, swag and social media design, targeted outbound invitations to attract attendees who match our ideal customer profile (ICP), and lead handoff to GTM.

    Panelist alongside Peter Walker (OpenRouter), Alex Nails (RadixArk), and Victor Su Ortiz (MiniMax).

Technical Launches

I turn model and product releases into practical resources developers can use. Working across AI engineering and marketing, I build cookbook examples and technical demos, produce video tutorials, and create launch visuals and social content.

I manage Liquid AI's Discord community and its X and LinkedIn accounts.
