About Me

From battlefield to code base, I'm Jeremy—a Special Forces Medic turned AI Engineer forging a new mission in artificial intelligence. Combining military precision with technical innovation, I leverage my decade of high-stakes leadership to build resilient, intelligent systems that enhance human capabilities and solve meaningful problems. My work focuses on creating AI that amplifies human creativity and flourishing, ensuring technology serves as a partner in our collective growth rather than merely a tool. I'm passionate about designing systems that help humanity navigate our rapidly evolving future with greater meaning and purpose.

Current Focus

With graduation on the horizon, I'm focusing intensely on my final coursework at the University of Michigan-Dearborn. My current classes in Algorithm Analysis, Neural Networks, NLP, Quantum Computing, and Game Design represent the last objectives before completing my M.S. degree—applying the same determination that saw me through five deployments to this final academic mission.
