About Me

I’m a Graduate Research Assistant at the University of Wyoming, where I build grounded, compliance-aware AI systems that combine multimodal retrieval, agentic reasoning, and 3D scene understanding. My current focus is bringing 3D world models and BIM-conditioned generation to real construction-site monitoring for transportation and civil-engineering workflows.
