About Me

Friday January 16, 2026

Hi, I’m Jerry. Sometimes I write software, but mostly I just think about stuff. Sometimes I write my thoughts here.

I’m always open to conversations, about anything. I’d love to learn what you’re interested in, truly 100% I promise, so hit me up! My gmail is personjerry@

Boring Stuff

For my day job, I lead the AI engineering team at Numeral. Btw we’re hiring!

I also mentor and consult for mid-size companies on AI-related strategy, product direction, and engineering processes.

Previously, I worked on Trust & Safety at Character.ai, and before that I was Head of Growth at Dendron, a Y Combinator company building a note-taking app for developers.

I started my career working on machine learning at Facebook, fighting against harassment and child exploitation.

If you’re looking for my CV in full, please refer to my LinkedIn.

Fun Stuff

I graduated from UC Berkeley in 3 years, majoring in computer science and minoring in philosophy.

Then I spent 2016 traveling the world, visiting Paris, Nice, London, Amsterdam, Liege, Berlin, Vienna, Prague, Bratislava, Budapest, Belgrade, Bucharest, Valencia, Shanghai, Suzhou, Chengdu, Siem Reap, Bangkok, Luang Prabang, Sydney, Melbourne, and Cairns.

In 2021 I started traveling again. My current voyage has taken me to Honolulu, Puerto Vallarta, Valencia, London, Zagreb, Split, Varna, Ponta Delgada, Praia, Oaxaca, New York, San Francisco, San Juan (Puerto Rico), Medellin, Lima, Cuzco, Buenos Aires, Antarctica, back to Lima, Mexico City, Toronto, New York again, and China again (Suzhou, Jinan, Xian, Chengdu).

As of January 2026 I’ve settled into a more permanent role in New York and expect to be here for a while.
