Hi, I'm Justin

I'm an ML Engineer and User Researcher, focusing on applications in transportation/mobility, urban planning, and local policy.

In my free time, I spend my time dancing West Coast Swing, playing grass & beach volleyball, organizing art-focused events, and enjoying parks & public transit.

I hold a BS and MS in Computer Science + Urban Studies from Stanford.

My work experience includes data design & engineering in big tech, grad-level ML research, policy work in the US Senate & Oakland Department of Transportation, and 0-1 work at multiple startups working on problems such as Supply Chain Optimization in Senegal & Qatar, US Manufacturing, and Agentic systems for art evaluation and building permitting.
