About Me
I’m a Senior Staff Software Engineer at LinkedIn, working on AI for Trust (e.g., detecting fake accounts, automated bots, GenAI content). My work has led to multiple patents, research collaborations, and publications.
I created and maintain isolation-forest, an open-source anomaly detection library used across LinkedIn’s anti-abuse systems.
Before tech, I was an experimental particle physicist. I earned my PhD at Brown University on the LUX dark matter experiment, where I helped build and operate a leading-generation detector located a mile underground in the former Homestake gold mine in South Dakota.
