Freelance Software Developer
Diverse client work via Wayfinder Data Solutions, LLC — including an internal construction planner and data tracker with real-time reporting, camera integrations, and Scrum-style delivery.
M.S. Artificial Intelligence · UGA
Worked with the National Park Service on automated bird song classification — bird populations as habitat health indicators.
Database Technician · U.S. National Park Service
Schema design, apps for scientists, and SOPs for data workflows and field procedures.
Database Technician · U.S. National Park Service
Database applications for Wildlife and Water Quality SECN teams during M.S. studies.

About
Ben is an Atlanta-based engineer focused on production AI agents, multi-stage multi-agent pipelines, and reliable orchestration across complex systems and data flows.
He is an AI Agent Developer at ADP (full-time, since September 2025), where most of his work centers on designing and shipping multi-stage, multi-agent pipelines for complex routing, tool use, and cross-system data handoffs, with chat as one component inside a broader orchestration platform.
He co-founded Artimatic Technologies, Inc. , an AI animation software company, and is no longer in an operating role there. Earlier, he was a software developer for the U.S. National Park Service South East Coast Network in Athens, GA. Details on Artimatic products, freelance work, and NPS data tooling live in the Work section above.
Ben earned a B.S. in Computer Science and a B.A. in Cognitive Science from the University of Georgia in 2019, and an M.S. in Artificial Intelligence from UGA in 2021. During the M.S., he built database applications for NPS Wildlife and Water Quality SECN teams. He is a UGA fan—Go Dawgs. Off the clock, he enjoys exploring with his dogs.
He cares about architecture, planning, and turning ideas into shipped software. Deep strengths include Python, SQL, AWS, and agent stacks (Strands, LangChain), alongside the web and API layers that surround them.
