A bit about me
& what I work on.

I'm a data scientist and AI researcher with a background in analytics, NLP, and machine learning. I bring a builder's mindset to everything — from migrating enterprise analytics platforms to researching transformer architectures.

My work spans web analytics, natural language processing, and AI research, with experience at organizations like Deloitte and Virginia Tech's Hume Center. I hold an Intelligence Community CAE Scholar designation and a CS/Data Science background from Virginia Tech.

When I'm not working with data, I'm exploring jazz harmony at the piano, thinking about AI philosophy, or building creative tools like the voxel world you see above.
