I lead everything from product vision to full-stack and ML development as we build a wildfire forecasting platform grounded in climate data and real-world need. I design custom pipelines, engineer domain-specific features, and shape models that actually perform. I also create intuitive tools to turn forecasts into insights people can act on. It’s technical, creative, messy, and fantastically interesting.
