Head of AI @ Kiloverse

I’m Head of AI at Kilo, where I lead the development of AI systems and tooling. Previously, I built and scaled products across the fintech startup ecosystem - most notably authoring a world’s first-of-its-kind account-to-account (A2A) payments technology. Alongside industry work, I’m also a scientist with extensive field experience: I’ve researched poison frogs in the Amazon rainforest, where I applied a self-built neural network for bioacoustics analysis, and worked in the High Arctic on Svalbard, drilling ice lakes to study plankton while living among the polar bears.
