hi Iโm James! Iโm interested in ML research, AI policy, and geopolitics. I also like building tasteful products.
Recent work
- Engineering at Shopify on the Sidekick+ CX R&D team.
- 7 months at Mozilla, working on applied ML and networking research on Firefoxโs privacy team. Built software to defend hundreds of millions on the open web.
- Built Firefoxโs new tab widget surfacing metrics for enhanced tracking protection. Closed a handful of security bugs along the way.
A few things about me
- I enjoy ultras and triathlons! Training for the Canadian team for 2027 worlds, and racing a few 100km/80km trail races this year.
- I competed in debate internationally and coached students for four years.
- I have a very, very cute cat.
โฆand if youโre still reading
- My entire life packs into one 40L duffel. Interested in conserving and spending time in nature. Disinterested in fast fashion.
- Iโm a geography nerd. I have a collection of maps I find interesting (please ask me!!), and geek out on Geoguessr.
