🎓

I've always been drawn to problems that are simple to state but hard to solve. That pulled me into math — I did a PhD and spent years on exactly those kinds of questions.

Then AlphaGo caught my attention, and I got pulled into AI and Machine Learning. I taught myself the field and eventually transitioned my career into it. Since then I've been using data to drive decisions — end-to-end: experimentation, design, and bringing to production.

I also haved coached data scientists and mentored high schoolers publish their first high-school level research papers.
