About
My background
I started as an electrical engineer working on data analysis and signal processing. From there I worked across wireless industries, from communication satellites to high-end commercial WiFi routers, constantly building hardware and software automation to characterize and test end-to-end systems.
That work led me to software, then to data science (four years productionizing forecasting models), and then to marketing, where I built an automated messaging platform and went deep on A/B testing and experimentation. Looking back, the through-line is the same: everything I've worked on has really been about separating signal from noise — in radios, in models, in metrics, and now in cities.
What I'm interested in
- How complex systems behave at the edges, not the averages
- Experimentation, causal inference, and the design of trustworthy metrics
- Practical statistics for engineers — the kind you reach for at 2 AM
- Cities as measurable systems — urban data, infrastructure, public records
- On-device and privacy-first machine learning
- Agentic orchestration and eval design
- Probabilistic programming
What I'm writing now
I'm in the middle of Measuring New York, a long-form data series analyzing NYC livability across eight dimensions — mobility, housing, environment, daily needs, public space, safety, opportunity, and time-and-stress. Every chapter is fully reproducible from a separate analysis repo.
Outside the series, I write project posts (most recently a privacy-first baby monitor running on an old Intel Mac) and opinion pieces on engineering and statistics (eight short stories about engineers using statistics, failure probability modeling).
