Hi! I’m Vicki. I’m a founding machine learning engineer working on recsys/personalization/information retrieval. I worked on LLMs and LLM infra at Mozilla.ai, and on ML and recsys at Duo, Tumblr, Automattic, and Comcast. My interests in machine learning include Recsys search, MLOps and production, and distributed systems. I like reverse-engineering neural nets and machine learning systems.
I wrote a paper about what embeddings are. Embeddings Approaches DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.8015029
My side project was Viberary, which recommended you books based on vibe.
I ran an ML/data conference called Normconf.
