What I Do

Data & AI Engineering at North Highland.

I'm an Analyst on North Highland's Data & AI Engineering team, based in Dallas, Texas. I graduated in 2025 from The University of Oklahoma with a BBA and a Master of Science in Management of Information Technology.

My areas of focus span data engineering, data visualization, data science, artificial intelligence, machine learning, and related technologies. Day to day, that means building Power BI dashboards from the ground up, writing complex DAX frameworks, integrating Snowflake data pipelines, and resolving the kinds of composite model conflicts that make people want to throw their laptop out a window.

I've also built capability presentations around Azure Document Intelligence and OCR — including a real-world signature detection case study combining Azure, GPT vision, and PyTorch. If there's a way to make data smarter, I'm probably already poking at it.

From Passion to Action

Final Weapon — My Vision for Modern Games Media.

I founded Final Weapon at 16 years old because Japanese gaming coverage in English was scattered, shallow, and riddled with clickbait. I wanted to build a home for nonsense-free news, reviews, and insights about the video game medium and niche entertainment.

Since launch in 2019, we've grown into a Metacritic-listed publication with a massive worldwide audience. As Editor-in-Chief, I lead a talented team of writers, content creators, and designers — overseeing all content production, editorial strategy, and day-to-day operations.

Through Final Weapon, I've built countless connections across the industry and gained deep experience in project management, marketing, and industry relations. I work closely with major publishers and developers, and represent Final Weapon at leading events worldwide — including Summer Game Fest, The Game Awards, and more.

There's more to life than dashboards.

Let's talk.

Analytics, editorial, or something else entirely — I'm always open to meeting curious people.
