Mind, Motion & Meaning.

I study how the mind processes, decides, and moves — and build AI systems that try to do the same. Currently exploring machine learning and edge computing at the intersection of cognition and performance.

About

I'm a Cognitive Science student and student-athlete at the University of Michigan, drawn to the intersection of human cognition and artificial intelligence — how the mind processes, decides, and moves, and how machines might do the same.

This summer I'm independently building AI hardware and software platforms aimed at solving real-world business problems, exploring how machine learning and edge computing can drive impact.

As a former collegiate rower and cross country athlete, I've learned to thrive in demanding environments that require discipline, focus, and teamwork — habits that carry directly into how I approach research and building.

Projects

In Progress · Summer 2026

AI Hardware & Software Platform

An independent build exploring how machine learning and edge computing can solve real-world business problems — spanning both the hardware and software sides of the stack.

Coming Soon

More on the way

Additional projects will be added here as they're finished.

Résumé

My full résumé — experience, education, and skills — is currently being finalized. In the meantime, my background is up to date on LinkedIn, or feel free to reach out directly.
