After a decade building AI and data systems at scale, I've learned that better operations don't come from more tools — they come from owning your data model. When my laptop is closed I'm strength training, swimming, snowboarding, or deep in a 1:1 café conversation somewhere in SF.
Working on a hard data or AI problem?
Email is the fastest way to reach me. I'm always glad to compare notes — or to meet for a coffee in San Francisco.
