## Headline

Staff AI Engineer, GTM at Fello\.ai

## About

I enjoy building things that make sense to people, systems and the world they’re meant to work in\. Making intelligence useful, that’s the north star\. Curiosity drives the learning and clarity drives the build\. Currently building applied AI products at scale and always exploring better ways to align machine capability with human needs\. Solving complex problems is great, but solving them with kind and curious people? Even better\. Always open to meaningful tech, thoughtful conversations and ambitious ideas\.
