+
+My name is Alexander Kassouni.
+
+I'm currently a Senior Software Engineer at [Ascend](https://useascend.com) automating insurance accounting with AI.
+
+Previously, I was a Machine Learning Engineer at [Geminus AI](https://geminus.ai), working on [MLOps](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MLOps) and [bayesian optimization](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bayesian_optimization) for [industrial processes](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Industrial_processes).
+
+I graduated magna cum laude from the University of Pennsylvania where I studied Computer Science and Mathematics.
+
+I live in San Francisco with my wonderful cat [Buckminster](/buckminster).
