The driving force throughout my career has been my goal to create an affordable and sustainable solution to housing development.I started coding in 2011 - formalizing my education with a degree in CS and AI at Stanford University. After some time at SpaceX in 2018, I realized how poorly prepared we are to develop infrastructure from a distance. There is a true need for hands-off construction solutions - not only to help us explore the solar system, but to drastically cheapen housing on earth. Having grown up with housing insecurity, this really struck a chord with me.That summer, I came up with a plan and made a commitment to learn as much as I could from the industry in the next phase of my career. My time at Apple showed me how successful large scale organizations operate. This exposure allowed me to take on more responsibility in my next role at Built Robotics where I was able to narrow my focus towards the intersection of technology and construction. As the company prepared to scale, I helped make key business and product decisions, bridging the mental gap between engineering and leadership.In the summer of 2021, I decided it was time to get my hands dirty and work on housing directly. I would start with the most minimal solution: travel trailers. After several renovations, I moved on to a house in Austin, Texas. Over 6 months, I began to gain an appreciation for the skills and trades involved in real life solutions, further grounding my understanding of this industry and stepping out from behind the computer monitor to better understand what could be automated in the future.Over the next couple of years, I would continue to take on more responsibility within the autonomous driving division at Rivian. This company produces some of the most tightly integrated and elegant vehicles on the market - with all the pieces needed to camp and live out of them. Not to mention, they are powered by a renewable energy source. But, once return to office went back into affect, it was time for me to go.Now I am working on my own company to tackle housing affordability directly. As I continue on this journey, I hope to make a real impact on the future of autonomous infrastructure development for people in need and explorers alike.
