Profile / 01
I build the bridge between promising research and dependable products.
My work spans the full AI lifecycle: shaping the problem, leading research, designing the system, and creating the standards that keep it useful in production.
Today at Charisma, I lead scientific work across generative AI, speech intelligence, and financial machine learning. Earlier, I helped build a machine-learning platform for U.S. markets and spent a decade teaching and mentoring emerging AI talent.

A quieter frame, away from models and markets.Beyond the systems / 05
Curious by nature. Serious about the craft. Human in the process.
The work matters most when the people around it can understand it, trust it, and improve it. I bring the same calm curiosity to a technical review, a product conversation, or a walk away from the screens.
Let’s talk / 06
Have an AI challenge that needs both vision and execution?
I’m interested in senior AI leadership, technical advisory work, and ambitious product teams building responsible, production-grade intelligent systems.
