Portrait of Jack Dawson

I’m a student, researcher, and full-stack developer who enjoys exploring how software and data can be used to solve meaningful problems.

I conduct research at the Vanderbilt University Institute of Software Integrated Systems and at the UCLA Biomedical Artifical Intelligence Research lab, working on projects that combine computing and real-world data, as well as engineering focused projects.

Outside of academia, I collaborate with teams developing applications for non-profits and spend my free time pursuing personal projects that explore new ideas in AI, design, and system development.

No matter the setting or field, I’m always looking to learn something new and expand my skills a little further.
