Focus & Background

I build data platforms and machine learning systems from initial theoretical foundations to scalable production platforms.

My work spans causal inference on clinical RNA sequencing data, geospatial soil intelligence platforms, and zero-to-one full-stack applications. Outside engineering, I spend time on summits in the Alps, in woodcraft, through auteur cinema, and composing soundscapes.
