Jerry is an M.Eng. Computer Science student at Cornell University and a graduate of the National University of Singapore’s Computer Science program, with a background in machine learning and artificial intelligence. His recent research has explored multilingual information retrieval, dense retrieval, and embedding models.
He is interested in applied ML and LLM systems, and is excited to explore how these technologies can be used for geospatial intelligence and real-world urban applications.
“I’m especially interested in applied ML, LLM systems, and building AI tools that can solve real-world problems, so I’m excited to explore how these can be applied to urban data and digital twins.”

Projects
Heatscape NYC
Urban heat intervention planner — 10,081 populated cells scored on 43 indicators and matched to the cooling intervention their context supports.
Project overview
URIS Mapper
A causal diagram platform — build a loop map, let it find the reinforcing and balancing structures, and ask what a change would propagate to.
