    overview
    I'm continuing my focus on video classification on Databricks for AWS. I work closely with data scientists to make sure they have comprehensive observability of their models, a streamlined process for bootstrapping their model to work as a high throughput pipeline (via PySpark), and a functional compute environment for them to work in. I've participated and placed (1st and 2nd) in two hackathons at IAS, both based on utilizing generative AI, specifically LLMs, in our products. I'm incredibly excited to see how we continue to progress and implement LLM-based products into our lineup, and I'm proud to be part of it.

Fun Fact

From grades eight to twelve, I participated in oratorical competitions hosted by Rainbow Push, a civil rights organization based out of Chicago. Won first place over five times and placed third nationally. I've also been invited by Rainbow Push to speak at several of their events.

Passion

My four passions are learning, teaching, mathematics, and computer science. They're the reasons I get out of bed in the morning, and the reasons I'm able to maintain my drive to be better.
