I'm an engineer and researcher building technology for perception, creation, and intelligence.

Currently, I am software engineer at Google, where I work on image editing for Pixel. Previously, I studied computer science at Amherst College.

My interests include visual synthesis, scene understanding, language modeling, and applications of these tools to be useful, creative, and intelligent.
