I’m a product engineer currently working on serving real time intelligence at Cartesia.
I’m passionate about tools that make it fun and easy to build tools and calm technology that gets out of our way.
I like compilers, the web, and good design.

I recently graduated from UC Berkeley, where I earned a degree in Computer Science with Honors and a minor in Public Policy.
Before joining Cartesia, I was an AI/UX engineer at Symbolic, where I built AI tools for journalists.
