About ☕️
I'm work in AI education and workforce development at JPMorganChase, helping engineering teams make practical use of AI tools. I've been focused on making cutting-edge AI actually useful and understandable for engineers in their day-to-day work. I came from being a lead engineer on AR/VR research, where I earned recognition as a Prolific Inventor (2021–2023). That hands-on technical experience, plus my love for making complex tech make sense to people, is what drives my approach to learning and development. That technical background now informs how I approach learning and development.
Here is my main YouTube Channel, where I have been having fun recently.
I spend a lot of time volunteering and serving on the board of The Wisdom Seat: a group of Buddhist teachers and practitioners who host spiritual teachers, sponsor meditation retreats and offer support to people on the Buddhist path.

I studied computer science and software design at Temple University.
Recording was my first love. At age 13 I got a guitar and a 4 track recorder. I have been making recordings as long as I’ve been around music.
My first career was all about sound: I worked as a record producer, recording engineer, mixing engineer, theater sound designer, and sometimes a musician. Now that I've switched to working in software, I still play with recording, make music, and create podcasts.
I will keep playing with recording until I’m dead 💀💀💀
My partner is an artist & UX designer and potter.
We are the parents of one kid.
