Software Engineer and general technologist. 20+ years experience (majority at Google, working in Corporate Engineering, Energy/Climate, Maps, Search, ChromeOS, and others).

Now working primarily in climate tech and adjacent spaces.

Interests:

- Energy/Climate Tech (especially decarbonizing and bringing resiliency to the built environment, electricity, transportation).

- Applications of emerging tech to solve problems in climate and energy, education, and quality of life for the majority of people.

- Linguistics (especially historical, also computational and social).

The best way to get in touch is to triangulate me on the Internet (shouldn't be hard from my comment history) and reach out over LinkedIn.
