I am an AI educator and coach who specializes in training people to practically use increasingly popular agentic coworking tools such as Claude Code and Claude Cowork. My expertise is grounded in more than ten years of experience working with data and AI in a variety of contexts, whether that be as a physical scientist, research analyst, government program manager, or tech startup builder. I understand how AI fundamentally functions and use that knowledge to show how AI can elevate instead of replacing your work. My coaching style is casual and emphasizes learning by doing. Expect practical projects based on your own challenges that you can showcase in your work portfolio along with plenty of reading recommendations for further growth. Outside of coaching, I like to organize tech meetups in the DC area, play video games, and curl up with my cat and a good scifi book.
