About

I turn research into real products that people use every day. I currently lead evals at Google DeepMind. Previously led industry benchmarks like Humanity’s Last Exam at Scale AI’s research lab (SEAL). Before that, I brought some of the first consumer AI apps (Midjourney, ElevenLabs) to 30M+ users at Discord and built ML marketplace products (Wait & Save, Shared Rides, $2B impact) at Lyft. Princeton OR + ML, 9 ML patents, and a tinkerer at heart. Outside of work, I'm usually skiing, hiking, scuba diving, or dancing at a music festival.
