Multimodal Learning Designer,

Product Manager, & Educator

Summary

I'm passionate about education and teaching. The most important thing we can give students is an opportunity to create without limitation. I have spent the past 15 years:

Creating unique technical solutions to unique technical problems
Designing professional certificate programs for adult learners
Creating and managing curriculum and teaching computer science and game design to students of all ages
Tutoring middle and high school students
Teaching science to elementary students

I think I'm getting pretty good at it.

Experience

Oak.ai | Portland, ME

Technical Lead

2023-2024

Working the founding CEO, I helped develop the initial framework and technical stack to build a SPA web tool that allows users to parse and assess consumer level legal agreements such as Terms of Service documents. The application uses a proprietary RAG system to deterministically assign “vibes” to document clauses, utilizing the power of AI without any of unpredictable outputs. To do this, I had to learn database management and the Supabase framework without any previous experience.
