About

My work centers on machines that read, reason, communicate, and act. It takes engineering, language, and design, and often leads to systems for research, coordination, and delegated work.

I’m currently building new forms of human-computer interaction as Co-Founder and CTO of Righthand. Previously, I built AI research systems for fixed-income portfolio managers and traders at Western Asset Management.
