What I Do

Economics taught me how to think — rationally, analytically, with structure. AI is where I channel that thinking. I research AI strategy, build intelligent automation tools, and turn cutting-edge tech into real-world impact.

I'm a firm believer in vibe coding — building functional tools with AI assistance to solve real problems fast.
