I’m an engineer by training and by nature. I work at the intersection of machine learning, forecasting, and risk—as a Principal Machine Learning Engineer at MetaMetrics, working in psychometrics and education technology, and as Chief Innovation Officer at Weaver Mine Capital Management, focused on quantitative finance.

I tend to think in systems and probabilities: building models from first principles, testing assumptions against evidence, and trying to understand what is signal, what is noise, and what remains genuinely uncertain. Much of my work centers on predictive modeling and the design of quantitative systems for making better decisions under uncertainty.

This site is a working portfolio and thinking space for ideas and projects that interest me—often involving uncertainty, forecasting, truth-seeking, and the challenge of presenting complex information with maximum clarity and minimal distortion.

It is, more or less, my form of doodling. Though I am known to doodle too.
