About
My name’s Josh and I’m a Founding Member of Technical Staff at Veris AI, where I’m working on Generative Simulation Environments for LLM Agents. Previously, I was a co-founder of Coqui, a speech technology startup. My expertise is in Automatic Speech Recognition and Synthesis, Natural Language Processing, and general Machine Learning. This blog is some of what I’m doing and learning along the way.
Even though I spend most of the day with my Speech / NLP / Machine Learning hat on, I’m still very much a linguist in that I love languages. I’ve spent a good amount of time studying French and Russian, and I’ve dabbled in a handful of others. Kyrgyz is a language I often use in my research, because it’s pretty cool!
