AI / Machine Learning · Data Science — I build AI systems from start to finish: multi-agent document pipelines, fine-tuned and calibrated transformers, LLM evaluation, and behavioral prediction models.

About me


I'm finishing an M.S. in Psychology: Data Science in Human Behavior at UW–Madison (expected December 2026), after a B.S. in Psychology with a neuroscience concentration at UW–Parkside. Before graduate school I spent five years in high-volume logistics and operations, working on quality assurance, documentation, and process improvement. That is why I care about error rates, reproducibility, and cost as much as accuracy.

I'm interested in AI systems that know when they are unsure: calibrated classifiers, evaluation you can trust, and pipelines that pass hard cases to a stronger model or a person instead of guessing. Outside of that, I like turning physics into interactive software, and I'm curious about how people think and act, which is what my psychology training is about.

Selected work

Each project has a case study on the portfolio.

  • Digital-Mailroom: my capstone with American Family Insurance, one LangGraph pipeline for document routing, prompt experiments, scoring, and deployment.
  • Mailroom-ML: a calibrated ModernBERT classifier that handles routine documents and knows when to hand off to an LLM.
  • Mailroom Reloaded: the mailroom rebuilt as one deployable service, with an audit log of every decision.
  • RVL-CDIP-Classifier: zero-shot document classification with vision LLMs, with tracked prompt versions and cost per page.
  • Mailroom-Corpus-EDA: the data engineering behind the mailroom dataset: 3,302 documents from public sources, with provenance, label separation and an audit pipeline.
  • AeroGlobe: a 3D flight-tracking globe built around a static data pipeline; in active development.
  • Psychometric Digital Twin: LLM "digital twin" personas against seven classical models on 241 survey respondents; the personas did not beat simple baselines.
  • MORNINGSTAR: a courtroom of LLM personas that argue, vote, and rule on engineering decisions.
  • Wave Laboratory: a real-time 3D ocean and ship-motion sandbox that runs in the browser.
  • The Mandalay Bay: a satirical casino resort simulator, play chips only.

Background

  • Education: M.S. candidate, Psychology: Data Science in Human Behavior, UW–Madison (expected Dec 2026). B.S. Psychology, UW–Parkside (2020–2025).
  • Now: building services at UW–Madison Recreation & Wellbeing and driving for Avis Budget Group in Madison, alongside my capstone.
  • Research: undergraduate researcher in a cognitive neuroscience lab at UW–Parkside (2024–2025), working with EEG and presenting at the 2025 Midwestern Psychological Association conference.
  • Before that: logistics coordinator at Meijer Distribution (2020–2025), promoted from Retail Loader.
