About Me ☁️
AI engineer. Fulbright Scholar. Ex-JP Morgan trader.
I build real-world AI — from NASA crater detection to generative 3D startups.
I led NASA’s crater detection research (93% precision for spacecraft navigation), am advancing 3D reconstruction research in collaboration with Stability AI at Rice University, and founded JewelVision — reimagining how 3D products are created for immersive experiences like virtual try-on.
My career’s always been anchored in data — from modeling financial risk as a derivatives trader at JP Morgan to training deep learning systems for multimodal AI. I bring a unique mix of technical depth, product strategy, and cross-industry experience — spanning finance, aerospace, and e-commerce.

🛠️I’m especially interested in building multimodal systems that enhance human-AI collaboration — tools that are both technically rigorous and socially meaningful.

My Story ✨
My journey into tech hasn’t been linear. I graduated with a degree in MORSE (Mathematics, Operational Research, Statistics, and Economics) from the University of Warwick in 2014 — basically data science before it had a name! My first job out of university was at JP Morgan as a Derivatives Trader, which had been my dream job — and where I spent the next 7 years.

Demo Day (2024) — Presenting JewelVision, my AI startup
During the pandemic, I found myself helping my family’s business and fell in love with using data analytics for business transformation. That experience — and a pro bono consulting project with the Maharishi Institute (the world’s first self-funded university) — opened my eyes to the power of data beyond the trading floor.
Helping them made me realize how much customer-focused consumer businesses lacked data-driven decision making — a huge contrast to the energy markets I came from, where every move was backed by data. 💡
I joined the Le Wagon bootcamp to build a strong foundation in data science and reignite my Python programming. Wanting to make a real difference using data, I felt driven to understand what to build — which led me to being awarded a Fulbright Scholarship, and eventually to Rice, where I founded JewelVision — a startup building 3D assets and virtual try-on experiences using computer vision and generative AI for e-commerce brands. 💍✨
What I’m Into Now 🚀
My research focuses on multi-view 3D reconstruction, generative models, and multimodal AI applications. I’m also exploring new areas of computer vision that excite me every day.
I’ve led projects with cross-functional teams, built technical prototypes, pitched to investors, and spoken at AI events. I’m passionate about applying cutting-edge research to real-world creative industries — especially fashion, jewelry, and design — and using data to drive better decisions.

Outside of AI 🧘🏽♀️
I love traveling, hiking, skiing, and spending time with friends, family, and animals. Life is more fun when it’s a mix of creativity, nature, and purpose.
Thanks for stopping by! 😊
