I build AI systems grounded in how people actually learn.
Now
At Alpha School, I build systems that help make personalized teaching possible for every K–12 student, in every subject.
Selected Work
Bridge.
An integration system connecting learning apps with a shared picture of student progress. It brings activity data together and delivers course assignments and targeted lessons, with a feedback loop under three minutes.
TimeBack.
Systems that help determine what each student should learn next: moving forward when they’re ready and getting targeted practice when they need it.
Invariant.
An AI browser agent that evaluates how learning apps teach. It works through lessons, tests how apps respond to different student behaviors, and produces video reports with evidence tied to instructional principles developed by learning scientist Carl Hendrick.
The Learning Standard.
An independent look at educational apps from a parent's perspective: whether they teach effectively and whether families can understand and control their data. An automated research and news pipeline tracks developments in education and AI.
TimeBack Insights.
A monitoring system that helps identify students who are stuck and problems that might otherwise go unnoticed. It connects signals from student progress, support issues, and alerts to guide intervention and product improvements.
