About

Hi there! I'm currently the co-founder of AtomInfinite, where we're on a mission to build AI-native productivity tools that actually make your work easier—not more complicated. 🚀 I hold a PhD in Computer Science with a focus on Natural Language Processing (yep, I spend a lot of time teaching machines to understand us better). Beyond the academic papers, I'm passionate about turning cutting-edge research into real-world products that help people work smarter, not harder. Ask me anything about NLP, AI product design, user workflows, or what it’s like building a startup from zero to one. I also love geeking out over automation, prompt engineering, and how language models are reshaping the future of work.

Cursor or Claude Code?

I love @Cursor. It's enabled me to build (vibe code) so many web apps, sites, extensions, and little things quickly that 1. bring me joy and 2. help me with work or realize personal projects.
However... I'm seeing a TON of movement around @Claude by Anthropic's Claude Code. I haven't personally tried it but it's apparently insane (and can also be expensive?)
I'm curious. Should I switch? What are you currently using? Or do they both have their own use case. I right now like cursor because I can build directly in a GitHub repo or locally and it helps me learn my way around an IDE.
Looking forward to hearing everyone's thoughts!
