About me

I am passionate about transforming how AI accelerates real-world solutions. With a background in quantitative finance and AI technology, my journey spans from developing advanced machine learning models to leading high-performing teams of engineers and data scientists. I am focused on building a future where AI empowers businesses and individuals alike. In the financial markets, I learned the importance of productivity, the first principles of investment, and the planning and operation of business models. Success in the stock market during my sophomore year made me realize the world needs value creation. I then pursued a master’s degree, diving deep into AI technology, from concept to training and validation, continuously improving accuracy, which I found deeply rewarding. I became particularly fascinated by reinforcement learning and attention mechanisms. This passion for technology led me to embark on my entrepreneurial journey in 2024, founding Altair X to deliver cutting-edge AI solutions to the world. Making the complex simple. Let’s work together to build something meaningful and shape a future where technology enhances human potential.
