About

Computer scientist with a background spanning machine learning, infrastructure, and the built environment. I'm drawn to complex systems and the challenge of making high-stakes decisions under uncertainty. Currently, I build AI-enabled decision systems and infrastructure strategy at Microsoft. These systems improve decision velocity, governance, and confidence in multi-billion-dollar infrastructure investments. I build trusted relationships, working cross-org and disciplines to achieve the shared alignment needed to move ideas from concept to execution. I’m particularly interested in AI infrastructure, distributed systems, decision intelligence, and the ways intelligent systems reshape real-world operations. Let’s build something amazing together!
