Hi — I'm Taken.

I studied AI in school, then picked up mobile and web so I could actually ship models in products.That mix made me want a portfolio that felt a little less template-y — so I built this site.Today I split my time between systems integration and AI R&D — I'm not glued to every headline, but I stay close to what actually ships.Lately I'm most curious about diffusion models and 3D / generative AI.

Introduction

• Default to being careful — I design and build with the full solution space in mind.

On every project I aim for clear performance targets — latency, accuracy, whatever matters. If I spot a better approach mid-flight, I dig in instead of deferring it. When a technical choice ripples into product scope, I pull planners in early and reset direction together.

• I share context as I go.

New tricks I pick up — a faster debug workflow, a cleaner ML recipe, a publishing gotcha — I pass along so the whole team ships faster across AI, web, and spec work.
