Engineer building at the intersection of AI, autonomy, and connected infrastructure. I thrive at the seam between engineering and the customer, where technical decisions have to hold up against real-world constraints and real people.
Currently at Viasat, architecting and deploying large-scale AI systems across satellite networks spanning 70+ countries. Previously at Motional (AV perception), Alert Innovations (warehouse robotics), and Siemens (industrial & service robotics), with an MS in Robotics Engineering from WPI underneath it all.
- AI & LLM systems — agent workflows, MCP integrations, geofencing and authentication at scale
- Autonomous systems — motion planning, iterative learning control, sensor fusion, perception stack validation
- Connected infrastructure — satellite platform APIs, telemetry pipelines, distributed fleet monitoring
- Hardware-software integration — ROS, embedded control, sensor characterization (LiDAR, RADAR, IMU, GNSS)
