I am a front/back/deep-end developer.

• I wrote the NLP From Scratch series of PyTorch tutorials, focusing on building language models to classify, generate, and translate text.
• Before Transformers were a thing I created a recursive RNN intent parser to translate complex phrases to commands to control IoT things in my apartment.
• Before PyTorch was a thing I braved the seas of Lua Torch to make a seq2seq intent parser for the same purpose.
• Learning Lua also led me to creating a plugin for dynamic Nginx proxy configuration using Redis.
• I once attempted to make my own shell-like language using JSON as the main data type, supporting novel concepts such as parallel pipes.
• Sometimes I wander away from the big computer to build things with small computers, like a multi-modal USB knob.
