I build systems for imagination—and ask what they make possible.

Between mathematics and moving image, I look for the structures that let an idea become something people can feel.

Systems

Ideas become credible through the systems that carry them.

When intelligence no longer belongs only to humans, what should remain ours?

Collaborate

Begin with a question.

I am most interested in collaborations where technical depth, cultural imagination, and human consequences belong in the same room.

  • Early-stage companies and founding teams
  • AI products, model evaluation, and creative tooling
  • Technical advisory and research conversations
  • Longer-horizon paths toward doctoral research

What might we understand—or make—together that none of us could reach alone?
