About Me
Professional Overview
My academic background is in math and physics, though I also picked up a couple philosophy degrees along the way. I left academia in the middle of my theoretical physics PhD program after I was lucky enough to get the opportunity to try to bring Jivry to life. I then joined Imbellus as an AI research scientist, working on building tools for 3D artists to expedite the 3D mesh creation process using machine learning. This led to several computer vision patents on 3D reconstruction and 2D-3D correspondence.
Imbellus was acquired by Roblox in December 2020. I joined SmileDirectClub as a Senior Machine Learning Research Scientist in August 2021, where my work is focused on building signals between images and 3D meshes, and developing machine learning models on those signals for pose prediction and 3D reconstruction of dental arches.
Personal Overview
Born and raised in NYC, I returned in 2020 after four years in Los Angeles. This website was created shamelessly for SEO purposes (who knew my name was so popular), but I should probably have a personal website anyway.
A former runner, I now spend a lot of time in funny outfits training to go faster on a bike. I’m broadly interested in endurance science and training, and enjoy cooking up nasty workouts to suffer through. All the highs and lows get posted about on Strava, though you can also find me on Zwift.
