Hi 👋, I’m TJ. Software engineer, pharmacist, and AI researcher.

After completing university, I worked for five years as a pharmacist, where I gained deep insights into healthcare systems, patient care, and the complexities of pharmaceutical workflows. During this time, I became increasingly fascinated by the potential of technology to improve healthcare delivery and patient outcomes.

This fascination led me to transition into software engineering, where I could combine my healthcare expertise with technical skills to build solutions that make a real difference. The move from pharmacy to software development wasn’t just a career change; it was a way to amplify my impact on healthcare at scale.

Today, I focus on AI research, particularly working with large language models (LLMs) and retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) systems in the context of pharmacy and healthcare. I’m passionate about exploring how these technologies can assist pharmacists, improve medication safety, and make pharmaceutical knowledge more accessible and actionable.

My unique background allows me to bridge the gap between clinical pharmacy practice and cutting-edge AI research, ensuring that the solutions I develop are not only technically sophisticated but also grounded in real-world healthcare needs.
