I build AI tools and data products for real-world decisions.

I’m a master’s student in Computational Analysis and Public Policy at the University of Chicago. I build AI workflows, data pipelines, and software across energy, public service, and research.

PublicPath

Making public-sector opportunities easier to find.

I co-built PublicPath, a platform helping students and early-career candidates explore government careers. My work focused on API ingestion and data quality: cleaning, deduplicating, normalizing, and validating listings for search and filtering.

Ourea Brain

Company knowledge, accessible through Slack.

I built and deployed Ourea Brain, an internal AI assistant that brings company context into Slack. It connects information across Slack, Gmail, Google Docs, and meeting notes to help colleagues retrieve project context, identify owners, and follow up on decisions. The application runs on Google Cloud Run and uses Anthropic’s Claude API; an early live deployment answered a Slack question using meeting-note context.

CLARITY

Turning clinical notes into patient-friendly explanations.

I built a Python pipeline for the CLARITY healthcare-AI project that converts de-identified clinical-note JSON into patient-friendly explanatory videos. The workflow automates narration, slide generation, and MP4 production using Microsoft Neural TTS.

Background

My work moves between building software and applied research: data platforms and AI workflows on one side; machine learning, survey analysis, and geospatial work on the other.
