golden gate bridge san francisco building now

i build intelligent systems that work in the real world.

i’m a member of technical staff at amazon agi, leading research tooling for real-time multimodal agents. i like operating where models, systems, and products blur together.

before this: computer-use research at amazon, founding halo ai, microsoft, two columbia degrees, and nlp research.

01 / work

building across layers.

from multimodal post-training to product strategy, i’ve followed consequential problems instead of a single job description.

amazon agi · real-time multimodal agents

technical lead, research tooling · san francisco

leading ten senior engineers across research data, training, tooling, and evaluation. the team shortened the path from a data request to an analyzed trained model from roughly two weeks to three days.

increased a streaming vision-language model’s win rate from roughly 10% to 40% in under a week, and cut qwen 3-vl-8b training from 31 hours to 8.5 hours on a 32-node b200 cluster.

designed a compact computer-use action language and a client-server runtime that reaches under 300ms frame-to-action latency in-region.
