Tech founder · AI/ML engineer · builder
Software engineer, entrepreneur, and mentor. I build products, companies, and communities in tech. Full-stack at heart — most at home in Ruby on Rails, and these days spending a lot of time in the AI/ML space. I also mentor founders from underrepresented backgrounds, because everyone deserves a fair shot at building something meaningful.
