About

My background is in Deep Learning, and building useful things. I've worked on almost the full stack of AI at Tesla, from ai accelerator firmware and chip bring up, to training optimization and infra, to actual model development and inference engine optimization I have a strong bias for action, and love working in a startup-like scrappy environment. I care deeply about humanity and enjoy working on things that will make the future better. Born and raised in a motel where I lived till I was 18 and built the tech stack for when i was a kid US born citizen. Not open to contract work.
