About

I'm an innovations leader, OSS contributor, and published author who specializes in helping companies build high-performing technical organizations.

My interests span philosophy, math, code, and the arts. In the little pockets of time in between, I love to travel, race cars, and indulge in eating Chinese hotpot around the world.

I'm currently researching systems optimization and building a product at the intersection of AI/ML and graphics. I'm also available for advisory work on engineering management, enterprise architecture, AI/ML systems, and real-time graphics.
