Brian Haydin

AI architect, speaker, and community leader working across Microsoft Foundry, Copilot Studio, production AI agents, and modern data platforms.

Bio

I design and ship multi-agent systems for manufacturers, banks, and other regulated enterprises across the Midwest. Most of my work sits where the demo ends and production begins: evaluation sets, tracing, regression harnesses, approval gates, and the boring controls that decide whether an agent survives its first bad week.

I write Tech Trekking about that work, and I speak about it at conferences, code camps, and user groups around the Great Lakes. The outdoor analogies are not a gimmick: the same habits that keep you safe on Lake Michigan in November are the ones that keep an agent from taking a customer with it.

When the laptop closes I'm on the lake chasing king salmon, in the woods chasing deer, or at the cabin making maple syrup with my kids.

Placeholder: a short career-history paragraph goes here (years in the field, the arc from data platforms to agents). Brian to supply; nothing is assumed.
