BIO
I’m a co-founder of Daqstra (YC S26), building AI-native orchestration for test infrastructure in physical R&D. I studied computer science at UCSD, where I led AI and autonomy for Mars cave exploration drones and worked on multimodal AI safety for vision-language-action robots. My co-founder and I met building rocket engines, and I’ve since worked across 10+ test campaigns in the Mojave Desert.
