I build
systems and
tell stories.

Full-stack AI application developer. I architect intelligent systems — LLM applications, MCP integrations, enterprise automation — and I've spent the last stretch building fitness software that takes women's health seriously. Computer science and communications, in that order and both at once.

AI Systems

Memory, not
just prompts

Lyva's coaching layer. Doris & June, a local assistant with a pgvector memory store behind an MCP server. Tools that remember what happened last time.

Engineering

Correctness
first

100,000 records a month and 40-table schemas by day. By night, a lottery win-engine built as pure testable Dart before a single screen existed.

Words

Five books,
and a sixth coming

Four children's picture books under a pen name, a book about work, fitness and self-worth, and a 102,000-word novel in edit. Writing isn't the hobby that sits beside the engineering.

Three things
on my desk
right now

How I build

Three things
I believe

01

Consistency
over precision

Perfect plans nobody follows are worth less than decent plans people stick to. Lyva locks your plan for 14 days on purpose.

02

Calm over
aggressive

No streak-shaming, no "crushing it", no notification spam. Guidance that respects the person on the other end.

03

The boring
middle is real

Weeks 4–12 are where everyone quits. That's not a motivation problem to solve with badges — it's an identity one.

Let's make
something

Open to freelance, collaborations, and full-time roles.

Portfolio

The work

AI systems, engineering at scale, machine learning, a couple of games, and five published books. Filter by discipline.

Now — updated monthly

What I'm
building

Personal projects in progress. Unfinished on purpose — this is the honest list.

Hi, I'm
Kenneth

I build AI applications end to end — from the prompt architecture to the offline sync to the thing the user actually taps. Right now that's Lyva, a fitness platform built under KineticIQ with an MCP-backed coaching layer and women's health features most apps quietly skip.

By day I'm a Systems Analyst with the Public Service Division, where the work is enterprise automation at a scale that punishes sloppiness — 100,000+ records a month, 40-table schemas, SLA clocks that don't care how you feel about them.

I also write. Four children's picture books under the pen name Taketatsu Kei, a book called The Modern Man about work, fitness and self-worth, and a novel currently in edit. My degrees are computer science and communications, which people find odd until they notice both jobs are the same job: build a system, then make someone care about it.
