I am currently a software engineer at Google (Mountain View, California). Since joining Google in 2011 I have been working on search ranking/quality.

In 2011 I received my masters degree in computer science from the University of British Columbia.

I keep my blog updated with the latest projects I am working on.

I am interested in language modeling and data compression. I have made several entries to the Large Text Compression Benchmark and won the Hutter Prize. I received the AI Grant for my work on cmix.

I built a hair cutting robot.
