Hi, I'm Brendan

I'm a...

Computer science student at Stanford (BS'24, MS'25) studying artificial intelligence. I'm also a graduate student researcher in Chris Ré's research group within Stanford AI Lab (SAIL) where I'm focused on work related to test-time compute and verification.

Previously I've...

Built ML infrastructure at Apple, backend services at Tesla, and payment tech at NoRamp Labs. Prior to that, I designed products at January AI & Tidepool, built an education company that reached $20K in quarterly revenue, and patented a medical device for custom foot orthotic generation.
