AI systems that connect stories, context, and compute.

I’m Matt, a computer science student at CU Boulder. I build end-to-end AI projects: a working roleplay-to-animation pipeline, wearable tools for daily context, and a small local AI fleet that supports both.

Three projects, one theme: AI that stays connected to context.

I’m interested in more than isolated model calls. These projects connect AI to ongoing stories, daily life, and the hardware that runs it.

Manfred · Wearable AI

Daily audio, live voice, and visual context.

Manfred combines Omi audio transcription and lifelogging with E09 smart glasses connected to ChatGPT Live. The goal is a wearable interface that can hear daily context, support natural voice conversations, and share what the user is seeing through image uploads.

Voice works today. Photo capture and delivery have been tested and are still being made more reliable.

Demerzel · Local AI operations

Knowledge, briefs, and the machines behind the models.

Demerzel combines daily AI briefs, LLM wiki ingestion from conversations, and management of my local AI machines. Fleet tools monitor supported services, start and stop workloads, and prevent jobs from competing for the same GPU.

Hardware includes an AMD Radeon AI PRO R9700, a dual RTX 3060 system, and a single RTX 3060 system.

Engineering focus

Build the full loop, not just the prompt.

I work across interfaces, model integrations, persistent state, local infrastructure, and automated validation. The interesting problems are often the connections between those layers.

Other work

Learning, automation, and mixed reality.

About

Computer science, AI systems, and creative technology.

I’m based in Boulder and studying computer science at CU Boulder. I like projects where a big idea has to survive contact with real software, real hardware, and real users.
