About

Hello, world! I’m Gabriel, a computational researcher from Minneapolis, Minnesota. Curiosity and a drive to do good in the world are my two defining features. In May 2023, I graduated from Pomona College in Claremont, California with a computer science major and a philosophy minor. In September 2023, I began a full-time research position at the National Renewable Energy Lab — now known as the National Lab of the Rockies — near Golden, Colorado. There, I’ve developed simulation software like Sienna to help design more climate-friendly electrical grids, studied how machine learning might make these simulations more efficient, and explored the role of neurosymbolic AI in planning tasks like power grid expansion. As of January 2026, I am on sabbatical to participate in the London AI Safety Research (LASR) Labs ‘programme,’ testing the robustness of AI interpretability techniques with a mentor from FAR.AI.
