CountOn

CEO / October, 2022 — February, 2024

CountOn helps people shop their values - no matter what they are. We use AI to summarize trusted product knowledge and deliver it into your regular shopping experience via a browser extension. The vision is a platform that delivers the highest quality, personalized, values-aligned recommendations into every shopping experience. In addition to being the CEO, I'm also the lead developer. I have implemented generative AI features (such as Retrieval Augmented Generation) using OpenAI, Pinecone (a vector database), and LangChain.

Amazon

Senior Research Scientist / October, 2016 — January, 2022

I led sustainable customer research for five years: dozens of people in usability studies, 100's in mobile diary studies, 10k+ in surveys, 10M+ in online A/B experiments, and 100M+ in search and purchase behavior. In 2019 I helped launch The Climate Pledge and was the company's first subject matter expert on carbon offsets in support of the $100M Right Now Climate Fund. I led a project using ML to identify sustainable products and built a new sustainable shopping experience that generated over $100 million in incremental revenue. This involved collecting training data by building a Mechanical Turk task (Javascript, JQuery, CSS/HTML), preprocessing and cleaning that data (RedShift, SQL, R), training ML models (S3, SageMaker, XGBoost & other algorithms), batch processing big data, generating recommendations, and conducting A/B tests.

National Renewable Energy Laboratory

Behavioral Scientist / July, 2014 — October, 2016

At NREL, I introduced behavioral science research techniques to teams throughout the lab. I built an augmented reality Android app (Java, Vuforia SDK, and OpenGL ES) that incorporated carbon information into consumer good purchasing decisions and performed a randomized controlled trial at a local grocery store. The app provided personalized recommendations and led to a decrease in the average carbon footprint of purchased products and to healthier food choices. My work in smart home energy management systems contributed to a 2018 R&D 100 award (given annually by R&D Magazine, the award honors the 100 most innovative technologies of the past year). I was also involved with the design, programming, and testing of an Android app that monitors transportation related choices and suggested alternatives. This involved creating and running user-interface tests using Amazon Mechanical Turk. The experiments were coded in Javascript (with jQuery, Backbone, and Bootstrap).

My career has been about solving hard problems in ambiguous spaces. I’m passionate about sustainability and the societal consequences of new technologies. I have a multi-disciplinary background including startup entrepreneurship, software development, deep subject matter expertise in sustainable consumption, a PhD in policy analysis, and an MS & BS in aerospace engineering. <br> I love exploring new technologies. For the last year, I’ve been using generative AI to build CountOn - an entirely new type of shopping experience where we use LLMs to summarize the knowledge of trusted experts in order to help people make better purchase decisions. Prior to CountOn, I spent five years at Amazon where I led sustainable customer research and helped launch The Climate Pledge (Amazon's commitment to be net zero carbon by 2040). Before that, I was a scientist at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory where I did some of the earliest research in augmented reality shopping tools, smart transportation, and home energy management systems.
