About Me

Data engineer who builds systems that don't break when things get messy. I love the challenge of turning chaotic real-world data into something useful and scalable. Currently exploring how data and AI can solve problems that drive business impact.

Interests

  • Building data platforms that scale with complexity, not just data volume
  • Applying AI to real-world problems where clean data is a fantasy
  • Designing systems that balance performance, cost, and actually shipping
  • Applying the same systems thinking to fitness, cooking, and golf

Featured project

Eros ExperimentActive

The Eros Experiment applies a systems-thinking and experimental approach to dating, analyzing patterns in attraction, communication, and relationship outcomes to better understand what drives meaningful connections.
