Work Experience

  • Proxima (formerly VantAI)

    • Helped run AI-powered discovery projects, built tools as well as workflows to screen absurdly large chemical libraries, and worked with teams to turn “this looks cool” into “this might cure something.” Equal parts scientist, coder, and professional molecule whisperer.


  • Biogen

    • Predicted which drug ideas were worth pursuing before anyone had to put on safety goggles. Used simulations and machine learning to save the lab from chasing bad ideas and to make the good ones look better. Think fortune teller, but instead of tarot cards used Python and physics.
