What I'm building
I am a co-founder of Voices of History, an AI history company. We build conversations with historical figures for games, classrooms, museums, and media, grounded in what each person actually wrote and said, and honest about where the record runs out.
Anyone can tell a chatbot to act like a historical figure. What we care about is conversational accuracy, every figure grounded in the real record.

I am a senior at Columbia studying Computer Science, Statistics, and Political Science, and a co-founder of Voices of History. I like building software that solves real problems, from mission critical space applications to consumer products, and I care most about shipping production quality work on tight timelines.
Before this I built live multiplayer systems at a poker startup, a data pipeline that tracks over 100,000 live events, and AR software for NASA's SUITS challenge that our Columbia team tested at Johnson Space Center. When I am not coding you can find me playing poker or exploring NYC.
