I build learning products, instrument them, and measure whether they work.

A data scientist and educator. Seven hundred-plus tutoring sessions taught me where people get stuck; the rest of my work is proving what moves them.

About

After a Mathematics and Statistics degree from Reed, I spent 700+ tutoring sessions learning where people get stuck. Most students don't have a broad problem; they have one foundational gap that was never caught, and once you name it, progress is fast and measurable.

I got rigorous about it at Yuno Learning, where the job was to prove an intervention worked rather than assume it did. I learned to trust measurement over intuition.

Now I build learning products end to end, so every channel is measured against real conversions rather than clicks.

Away from the screen, I powerlift, play tennis, and cut linocuts, and I follow automotive design closely. They scratch the same itch: form, patience, and the slow work of getting something right.
