Currently developing an AI-driven adaptive learning platform (ITZ - In The Zone) to transform special education for learners with ADHD, 2E Autism, and other neuro-divergent profiles. ITZ is a multi-modal platform combining computer vision, agentic AI, and conversational AI avatars to meet learners where they are. As a parent of 3 neurodiverse teens, the capabilities are finally here to bridge the gaps. My professional long-term vision is to be fluent in AI systems, and instill an unwavering commitment to safe, human-centered innovation.

When I first founded Guardian Airwaves LLC, I contributed significantly to the development of cutting-edge training solutions for emergency responders. My focus was on creating VR simulations that transformed the learning experience for first responders. Additionally, I established partnerships with key organizations to enhance the effectiveness of our training programs, ensuring they met industry standards and needs.
