Exploring the world is part of my life, both by doing research as a machine learning researcher and on foot in the nature world.

Aviation

I'm a Private Pilot with Airplane Single Engine Land rating (PP-ASEL). Piloting an aircraft allows me to travel faster and gives me unparalledled opportunities to appreciate the beauty of our world from the air.

• Airports visited: KSBA, KIZA, KCMA, KSBP, KPRB, KVNY, KL52, KMRY, KSBD, KSZP, KSMO, KOXR, KWJF, KSMX, and KLPC.

• Finished spin recovery training at KSZP, Oct. 2021.

• Logged 104.1 flight hours.

Photography

I’m a wildlife photographer. Photography allows me to record the beauty of our world, which could be transient.
