Notes

AI engineer and data scientist. Previous evolved form: evolutionary biologist. I spent years on population genetics and invasion biology – tracking New Zealand mudsnails through national park waterways – and I still think about problems the same way: observe carefully, model the uncertainty, explain it plainly.

Chicago-raised, Las Vegas-based, usually planning the next move. Find me outside with my miniature poodle – or where the determinism of the lab meets the stochasticism of the real world.

Strategy

  1. Impact over assumption.
  2. Collaboration over legacy.
  3. Empirical over theory.
  4. Every anything is possible.
