I'm a Senior Software Engineer on the AI/ML team at Grafana Labs, in New York. I got there by way of the mainframe. At IBM I ported Grafana k6 to z/OS and built resiliency testing for IBM Z.
Outside work I build geospatial AI tools for humanitarian use: DreamMeridian, amanat, and before those, routing for school-site planning at UNICEF. I've been working on this since I was an undergraduate.
I studied Theater and Computer Science at Wesleyan and I'm finishing an M.S. at NYU Tandon. I write poems and make theater; the poetry and theater pages have those.
