Computer Science and Media Arts and Design student at the University of Chicago, graduating 2029. I leverage AI tools to ship production-ready code extremely quickly—from idea to deployed software, not prototypes—and I am very much in my website era, with a long-standing appreciation for pho.
I'm a Computer Science and Media Arts and Design student at the University of Chicago, graduating in 2029. I love learning and building things in code, and I've developed a vast set of AI-assisted workflows that let me ship production-ready code quickly.
Right now, I'm building websites, tools, and apps for myself and for the communities I'm part of. I'm also experimenting with training models to tackle problems I care about, whether they come out of coursework, research-style projects, or just questions I want answers to.
I'm always up for a conversation or collaboration. Reach me at jgoetzmann@uchicago.edu.
