About
I work at the intersection of science, software, AI, and engineering - helping research organizations transform how they build and adopt technology to accelerate scientific discovery.
I am a firm believer that software can and should enable great science, not be a bottleneck. Through a well-reasoned and architected approach, engineering & IT can become the quiet enabler of progress, rather than an onstacle to it.
With a background in biology and bioinformatics, and full-stack software engineering, I turn complex challenges into scalable solutions. I've built data platforms processing petabytes of genomic data, developed tools used by researchers worldwide, and led multidisciplinary teams to deliver technology across research organizations.
Outside of work, I'm passionate about mountain sports.
