Hi, I'm Kyle

currently

I live in San Francisco and work as a Senior Software Engineer focused on Data Infrastructure for AI. Specifically semantic contracts/models and ontologies. My current research interests are in Local AI: A privacy-focused return to on-prem infrastructure combined with edge computing and local LLM usage.

previously

I was born and raised in New York and studied CS/Math at SUNY Binghamton ('22). My research interests were at the intersection of blockchain and the internet of things (IoT) decentralized computing infrastructure. Prioritizing both edge and fog computing techniques. Specifically, I worked on creating a decentralized ledger that is able to maintain data records across peer-to-peer networks: cameras, industrial sensors, and compute hardware.

Outside of work, I like riding my bike, hiking, seeing wildlife, playing poker, cooking, seeing ancient art, and learning languages.
