About

After working in both blockchain startups and enterprise software, I’m now taking a stab at solving problems in biology. I’m combining my software expertise with a fresh perspective on biology to drive innovation. At Editco, I developed machine learning models that accelerated scientists’ workflows. Outside of work, I explore CRISPR to create variegated plant species, build models to predict molecule binding, and design tools to forecast DNA methylation.
