I've been on quite the journey, one that's led me through the ever-evolving landscapes of technology and education. Co-founding Elephant Scale was just the beginning, a venture aimed at reshaping how we approach modern technology training. From delving into the intricacies of AI and Machine Learning to pioneering advancements in Cybersecurity, Scala, Go, Spark, and NoSQL, I've been fortunate to witness the transformative power of knowledge firsthand. Hailing from the vibrant city of Houston, Texas, my career has been a testament to embracing change and pushing boundaries. Whether it was serving as a Chief Technology Officer at Casify or founding Scaia AI, Inc., my passion for leveraging technology for societal progress has always been at the forefront. Crafting training programs at Intel Corporation or consulting for industry giants like Cision and GHX, each experience has been a stepping stone towards a greater understanding of the intersection between innovation and education. But it's not just about the professional accolades; it's about the relentless pursuit of knowledge. With a Juris Doctorate in eDiscovery from Novus and dual Master's degrees from esteemed institutions like Saint Petersburg State Electrotechnical University and Saint Petersburg State University, I've strived to marry legal expertise with technological ingenuity. As I step into the role of an instructor on this platform, my goal is simple: to empower learners to navigate the complexities of AI, Machine Learning, and Security with confidence and clarity.
