Good systems make complexity invisible.
I can call my grandma from across the world, see and hear her as if she were in the room, and never think about the light racing through thousands of miles of fiber-optic cable beneath the ocean.
I studied Computational Cognitive Science at UC Davis because I’m drawn to those cables: the hidden mechanisms doing the real work, whether they’re routing information through a technical system or shaping how people think, decide, and communicate.
From analyzing thousands of survey responses at the AI Collective to building a clinical AI simulation at the AI Game and Governance Lab, I've worked on projects that translate AI into practical decision-making tools..
Right now that's pulling me toward roles where I can uncover the hidden patterns beneath human behavior and turn them into products, research, and decisions that make complex systems feel effortless.
The rest of my interests show up as writing, personal essays to whatever topic catches my attention that week. Check it out here.
