Intro

As the Chief Technical Officer and founding member of MultiOn Inc., I specialize in AI-driven web and mobile technologies. My journey began with a BS in Computer Science from Binghamton University, where I consistently achieved high academic honors. I am highly self-motivated, a quick learner, and have a passion for problem-solving and connecting with people.

Professionally, I've developed a comprehensive mobile app that enables seamless interaction between users and AI agents, significantly automating workflows and enhancing digital communication. I forged a strategic partnership with Amazon Alexa, integrating our MultiOn Agent into Alexa devices. My roles have included directing the reinforcement learning and fine-tuning of open-source models to improve our AI agents' performance and reliability.

Before MultiOn, I worked as a Software Development Engineer at Amazon Audible, leading critical features for the iOS app, and at Pocket Gems, where I enhanced gaming applications for iOS and Android. At Delta Airlines, I developed features for the Fly Delta mobile app, improving customer experiences. These experiences have equipped me with a diverse skill set, enabling me to lead high-impact projects that push the boundaries of AI and technology.
