I'm a Research Scientist in Google DeepMind (formerly Google Brain), mostly doing "full-stack" research on language modeling, from pre-training to fine-tuning/alignment. Before that I had experience as a software engineer developing and deploying machine learning models in production to millions of users (e.g. as machine learning lead for Gmail Spam). Academically, I was fortunate to get my start in machine learning at the University of Toronto.
