Experience
I lead engineering at Cado, where I manage our databases, the recipe-import pipeline, nutrition analysis, and AI recommendations and integrations.
Under Prof. Wood-Doughty at Northwestern, I worked on low-data methods to find and steer "emotion" directions in the activation space of audio models.
At PathCision, I'm leveraging state-of-the-art machine learning models to develop intuitive tools that enable rapid system deployment from minimal data in biotech applications.
For our project at the Northwestern branch of IEEE, my team built CTECS.nu, a ChatBot that provides students with real-time access to Northwestern course information. To achieve this, we developed a suite of web scraping tools to gather data from university websites and designed a custom RAG pipeline to translate natural language queries into relevant course data.
Under the Arch (entrepreneurship) branch of ISBE, I developed ML-powered athlete form analysis software for Sports SensAI.
At IPR Advisors, I created a set of tools to automate the collection of mutual, index, and equity fund holdings data using web-scraping. These tools enabled a ~3x increase in data-aggregation speed for other interns.
Under Profs. David Thesmar & Emil Verner at MIT Sloan, I built a set of error prediction and information processing tools to speed up my team's task of creating a dataset of financial information using OCR. These tools increased data handling speed for interns in my team by about 5x.
During Covid, I joined Belmont Free Lessons, an effort to provide free virtual education to middle schoolers during quarantine. There, I taught a class on machine learning, covering topics like linear regression, NLP, neural networks, and cluster analysis.
As a newly elected programming lead of my town's robotics team, I managed a team of 4 programmers, developing an autonomous navigation system which helped our team win a seasonal tournament and compete at the NE district championship for the first time in our history.
In 2020, I co-founded my first "startup", an AI chatbot that analyzed forum websites to find solutions to Apple-related tech problems. We launched on Product Hunt in June 2021.
