About

I'm a full-stack software engineer based in NYC, currently building on the AI product team at a major news organization. I've worked at every level of the startup world: companies that went through IPO, YC-backed startups, stealth startups, early AI labs, and my own products as a founder. My joy in engineering comes from taking complex problems and turning them into real solutions β€” solutions that genuinely make an impact, get shipped, and improve people's lives.

NYC Subway Map

Imposter w the homies

Everyone gets the word. One of you doesn't. A mobile-first party game β€” the room fills a shared word pot, each round deals the word to every phone except the imposters', and a uniform-draw fairness rule guarantees you're never the imposter on a word you wrote. Guests play with just a name.
