Between systems and people

I’m from Medellín and live in Brisbane. I build AI tools that connect models to systems people actually use, and I use them every day: my own MCP server, the memory it runs on, an editor where the model only proposes.

I got here through engineering, on enterprise platforms real people depended on every day. That is where I learned the hard part: getting new technology into what a company already runs, so that it ends up serving whoever uses it.

I also studied psychology, focused on how people use computers, and I’m doing a Master’s in Literary Creation and Digital Narratives. The same question runs through all of it: who decides, the person or the machine? So I write fiction and make music with the rule I build by — AI proposes, the human decides.
