Bio
AI capability researcher building tools and methodologies for human-AI collaboration. Two years deep in capability elicitation, context engineering, and pushing model boundaries. I find what your AI can do that you didn't know it could.
The throughline across 12+ years: understand a complex system deeply enough to make it perform better. Previously that was brands and businesses. Now it's AI.
