The hardest problems demand clarity under chaos. The next frontier isn't smarter AI. It's radically fluid interfaces where humans and machines make decisions as one. I design these at Palantir and Gallatin AI. I'm a Contrary and 8VC Fellow, and study CS & Neuroscience at UCI.
Previously, I won 15 hackathons including the world's largest AI hackathon, built 911 dispatch agents at Berkeley Skydeck, ran the largest U.S. designathon, and presented adaptive navigation tools for astronauts to the European Space Agency.
As a kid I built cardboard claw machines and sold handmade clothes in my living room. Augmenting perception and beauty felt like alchemy. Henceforth, I made it my life's mission to master (and elevate) the art of human experience.
In my free time, I rabbit hole into WW2 history, write, and linger in classical art museums. My favorite painting is the Blue Boy .
