Building systems that push the boundaries of what's possible - from AI silicon to AI infrastructure! I'm at Microsoft contributing to the Maia AI accelerator program and building AI agentic systems to design our next-generation chips. Previous projects include low-power mobile and server CPU design, SW for HW design automation, and design verification. I enjoy working collaboratively to build complex systems delivering real-world impact! My hobbies include tracking the latest advances in AI, building mobile applications, training ML models, 3D modeling, and managing personal finances using Python. Offline you'll find me traveling and playing ice hockey.
