Yep, after layoffs, took a severance break and started a small company with friends. TC is less of course, but your sanity is part of your TC :D.

Checking back in with my friends who I left behind I made the right decision.

Data science, specifically contextual data enhancement, small language model evaluation, and helping companies evaluate their use of LLMs. Nearly all unspecialized companies are flying blind with LLMs.

I was in ad tech, specifically media analysis and pipeline evals.
