My main professional focus is computational criminology: using formal modeling and computational methods to help investigators fight child exploitation. My work (CaseLinker) is in use with Project VIC International's knowledge graphs and I am currently developing a canonical Exploitation State Machine for representing and disrupting non-consensual exploitation (CSEA, elder fraud, extortion, and beyond).

Beyond academics, I've had various experiences that have shaped who I am. I'm an Eagle Scout, which instilled in me values of leadership, service, and perseverance. I also played water polo, traveled the country camping and practicing jiu jitsu, and was the captain of my middle and high school robotics team, Tacobots. I'm also an avid Mixed Martial Arts practitioner :)
