I'm a software engineer at Nielsen and a graduate student at Georgia Tech, specializing in machine learning and natural language processing. I am particularly interested in neural machine translation of low resource languages.
Before I became a software engineer, I was an academic researcher studying ancient near eastern linguistics. As part of that work, I was responsible for creating and maintaining complex, highly-specialized right-to-left language datasets optimized for linguistic analysis.
When I'm not coding, I enjoy trail running in the Colorado mountains. I've run several ultra-marathons including four 100 milers. Ultra running has taught me that any problem can be solved with enough preparation, adaptation, and determination.
I would love to connect with you and collaborate on any interesting projects! Have an awesome day!
