Background · How I work · What's next

I'm a Chapman University student and incoming MBA candidate working at the intersection of artificial intelligence, emerging technology, product, and business. My projects turn ambitious ideas into tangible systems; from embodied conversational AI to software tools that make complex information easier to understand.

I move across the full stack of building: embedded AI and hardware, CAD and fabrication, software tools, and the storytelling that makes the work land. I prototype quickly, iterate in public, and care about the seam between engineering rigor and product craft. The goal is always the same; make the idea real enough that someone can pick it up and understand it instantly.

Next, I'm looking for ambitious work: AI startup roles, product and go-to-market positions, technical storytelling, and creative-technology collaborations where the bar is shipped systems rather than slide decks.
