My Journey

At 20, I've already worked at some of the world's most influential tech companies, building production ML systems that serve millions of users. My work spans the intersection of hardware and software, with a focus on bringing cutting-edge AI to resource-constrained environments.

From developing telemetry-based PyTorch pipelines at Apple to building Llama-powered recommendation systems at Meta, I've consistently pushed the boundaries of what's possible with edge AI and real-world deployment.

Currently, I'm focused on democratizing AI infrastructure through TryTools, while researching bias detection in NLP systems at Howard University. My goal is to make AI accessible and beneficial for everyone, everywhere.
