About

I've been a software engineer for , working primarily in financial technology. In graduate school, my focus was on deep reinforcement learning. In recent years I've been focused on applied AI, specifically for AI agents, RAG, and document data extraction. I take pride in building software that feels great to use and saves time for people.
