What I'm looking for

I'm looking to build and lead learning, assessment, or AI products where rigorous validation, thoughtful instructional design, and cross-functional delivery can improve how people learn and reason.

I've designed and validated large language model scoring systems at Texas Tech University, using more than 200 data-driven refinement iterations to assess math-science reasoning against published learning progressions.

As founder and product lead of DIY Stack, I lead an AI planning product from structured language-model extraction through deterministic quantity calculations and retailer-priced materials lists. My teaching and learning-design work has also raised IGCSE mathematics performance, supported a 100% cohort pass rate, and helped students reach national competition top-ten placements.
