Bio

I grew up writing video games and doing competitive math, then studied CS and statistics at UChicago. I then did a stint at Google as a product manager before going back to school for a PhD at Stanford, where I did research in ML and educational technology before dropping out to work on Mezli. Outside of work, I love reading, cooking, and outdoor sports.
