I've spent a decade making hard technology usable — in classrooms, on factory floors, and across a 12,000-person aerospace company. I lead AI enablement at Zillow, and I run Chaotic Curiosity, a studio building XR, AI, and robotics for museums, universities, startups, and research labs.
Before Zillow I was XR/AI Engineering Lead at Blue Origin, where I built emerging-tech capability from zero across every vehicle program and worked inside ITAR / export-controlled environments — the regulated-data side of responsible AI. I started as a physicist, spent six years running university physics labs, and I've never stopped teaching.
Today I'm happiest when I'm shipping: agents and internal tools, ML pipelines, immersive systems, and humanoid robots that learn to move. I'm a 2× Blue Origin Liftoff Awardwinner and a Space for Humanity citizen-astronaut finalist.
What I stand for
✦For the benefit of Earth and the diversity of its inhabitants.
✦AI is powerful enough to change everything. I choose to use it for good.
✦It is not enough to focus on building alone - we must share what we build with others.
