I’m an Applied Scientist ... turned manager!
I invest most of my time researching AI solutions, planning, hiring, implementing prototypes, establishing business value, and taking prototypes through productization.
I have demonstrated my ability to manage Research and Development teams of various sizes for the past 10 years. I have a proven ability to work well with people across different organizations, locations, and diverse backgrounds.
I am a Sr. Manager of Offline Driving Intelligence at Zoox.
We are building foundation models to help us with offline tasks such as scene understanding for triaging. Ultimately, these new architectures will be used to drive.

I was a Sr. Manager of Applied Science at Amazon. I worked on *Just Walk Out* (autonomous stores) applied science, where I got to use my technical background and strategic thinking to develop the future of physical stores. My team focused on large multi-modal models for action recognition.
I worked at Iris Automation for 5 years! Leading the R&D team in the development of sense and avoid systems for industrial drones. For my contributions in Sense and Avoid using Computer Vision I was awarded the MIT Innovator Under 35 recognition in 2017.
