Machine learning engineer and applied scientist, finishing an M.S. in Data Science at the University of Virginia in December 2026. Before data science I spent four years in proteomics and genomics labs.
I build models and then check whether their numbers mean what they appear to. My projects tend to end with an audit: a simple baseline that explains a headline metric, a domain gap a public benchmark hid, or a result that didn't survive more random seeds.
Currently: Learning Javascript, React, and Next.js.
