I'm a software engineer at Mechanize, where I build reinforcement learning environments and evals. We're trying to completely automate software engineering.

I'm from the bay area, I went to the University of Wisconsin-Madison, and my name is pronounced UH-kill (/ˈʌkɪl/). I like AI, information diets, reading, edtech, tennis, trivia, and games (all types).

Before Mechanize I did AI in VR research at NeuroErgonomics Lab, built a news aggregator with the N+1 Institute, and did data analysis at Think Fast Talk Smart. Check out my resume or linkedin for more info.

The last book I read was Pachinko by Min Jin Lee. My favorite album at the moment is Is This It by The Strokes.
