Hello! I'm Oliver, an AI/ML Product Leader based in San Francisco. With over a decade of experience at companies like Meta, Microsoft, and most recently Covariant, I've been at the forefront of developing innovative AI solutions that are reshaping how we interact with technology in our daily lives and in the physical world.

Professional Journey

My career has been driven by a passion for leveraging AI to create impactful products. From leading the development of AI-powered robotics at Covariant to enhancing user experiences at Meta and expanding language AI capabilities at Microsoft, I've consistently pushed the boundaries of what's possible with machine learning and artificial intelligence.

Some highlights of my journey include:

  • Spearheading AI robotics solutions at Covariant, working on technology that allows robots to learn skills much like chatbots do
  • Increasing user engagement on Meta platforms by 75% through enhanced AI-driven features
  • Expanding Azure Cognitive Services to support 25 languages for enterprise clients

Beyond the Office

When I'm not immersed in the world of AI, you'll find me actively contributing to my community. I'm passionate about using technology and art to promote social awareness and inclusivity. Some of my proudest moments include:

  • Collaborating with Illuminate to bring inspiring public art projects to life, such as The Pink Triangle
  • Creating LGBTQ+ themed art installations for events like World AIDS Day and Burning Man
  • Participating in the AIDS Lifecycle, cycling 545 miles from San Francisco to Los Angeles
