I am a computer scientist and musician.
In 2020, I co-founded Cohere with Aidan Gomez and Ivan Zhang. I am currently the CTO. We train large language models, and make them safe, accessible, and useful.
I was the first employee of Geoffrey Hinton‘s Google Brain lab in Toronto. I worked on machine learning research there for 3 years, focusing on capsule networks, adversarial examples, and explainability.
I did my undergrad in Computer Science and Cognitive Science at U of T. During this time I had the chance to work with John Tsotsos, Sanja Fidler, Jimmy Ba, John Vervaeke, Orion Buske, and Gary Baumgartner.
