I'm a Senior Research Scientist at Earth Species Project, a research non-profit dedicated to using AI to understand animal communication. My work is situated at the intersection of electrical engineering and behavioral ecology; I study acoustics, signal processing, machine learning, and the evolution of animal signals and societies. Before joining ESP I was in academia for many years and have worked at the Cornell Lab of Ornithology, National University of Singapore, Oxford University Department of Zoology, Stanford School of Earth, Energy, and Environmental Science, and Wildlife Conservation Society. Through my work I hope to advance research and conservation while encouraging joyful exploration of our world.
