01 — About
I'm an engineer who likes the whole board — data, models, agents, and the interfaces people actually use. Georgia Tech gave me the analytics foundation; AT&T gives me enterprise scale; my own projects give me range — from machine learning and AI agents to simulations and interactive atlases. What holds my attention now: agentic systems that do real work, and whatever interesting problem shows up next.
