I'm a software maker that lives on Bainbridge Island, WA.
For the last eight years I've been focused on AI infrastructure. The software and systems that allow us to manifest intelligence from thousands of distributed computers. I've been working at the intersection of AI and software engineering for the last twelve.
Today I lead the ML platform team at Runway where I help train and serve frontier world models.
Previously I worked at Ai2 for almost 11 years. I built infrastructure that helped train models like Olmo and Molmo, contributed to Semantic Scholar's growth from from 0 to 2 million+ monthly active users, and wrote software that supported research efforts like Project Aristo, MOSAIC, PRIOR, AllenNLP and more.
I enjoy my family, coffee, music, vim and creating software with curious people.
