Supporting public water data infrastructure and tools that make environmental data more accessible, interoperable, and actionable.
Master's in Data Science (MIDS)
UC Berkeley · May 2026
Applied machine learning, evaluation, data systems, and emerging AI methods
Capstone: Arc Radius — GraphRAG-powered platform using machine learning, knowledge graphs, and grounded knowledge retrieval with LLMs to make complex legislative information easier to understand, compare, and evaluate.
I build technical products at the intersection of data, science, and public impact — turning messy real-world needs into software systems, data products, and decision-ready tools. I work across product strategy, Python data pipelines, model evaluation, knowledge graphs, LLM workflows, and TypeScript frontend development.
I currently work with the New Mexico Bureau of Geology and Mineral Resources as Technical Product Manager for the Data Services program, supporting public water data infrastructure and tools that make environmental data more accessible and actionable.
In May 2026, I completed my Master's in Data Science from UC Berkeley. My capstone, Arc Radius, used machine learning, knowledge graphs, GraphRAG, and LLMs to make complex legislative information easier to understand and evaluate.
Before software and data science, I worked across geochemistry, wine production, agriculture, and plant-based precision technology — a background that still shapes my systems thinking and focus on practical tools for environmental and operational challenges.

Martin & McCoy
Remote, Portland, OR May 2019 – June 2019
Converted a Microsoft Excel model of Colorado River water shortages into R and built an R-Shiny web application for on-demand computing and sharing with outside organizations.
Before focusing on data and software, I worked across geochemistry, wine production, agriculture, and plant-based precision technology — including roles at Lingua Franca Winery, Fruition Sciences, and as Technical Manager for Whitman College's Semester in the West field program. That domain experience still shapes how I approach technical work: with curiosity about real environmental and operational problems, and a bias toward tools that serve the people doing that work.
