Professional Bio

I started working with apps to complete AI coding challenges with my friends at university. I love being able to take new ideas in creative directions and get things done for my users. I'm a passionate, dedicated leader, and I've built solutions in facial recognition, natural language processing, and logistics. As someone who works with AI, I love Python for the breadth of its machine learning packages, but I also enjoy React Native for its potential to make any kind of mobile app imaginable. I enjoy rock climbing, running, and doing CrossFit.
