Still figuring it out.
Hey, I'm Matt!
Math & CS @ Stanford | Los Angeles, CA
My goal is to create as much impact as possible. I've previously worked in seismology, building and safety, and geochemistry. Most recently I was at Palantir as a forward-deployed engineer turned deployment strategist working on the U.S. commercial sector as part of the Meritocracy Fellows Program. Through these experiences, I aim to understand how best to create social change.
