Hello, World!
I build AI and spatial computing systems — one experience at a time.
I’ve been shipping in AI, AR, and web3 since 2015.
I’m the lead author of one of the first comprehensive AR/VR books published by O’Reilly Media in over five years — helping define how engineering, design, and business come together in real systems.
I’m a software engineer, startup founder, and former CTO.

Hi, I’m Erin! 👋🏼
I’m a software engineer, startup founder, and writer, born and raised in Silicon Valley.
I’ve been building in AI, spatial computing, and web3 since 2015.
I'm widely known as the lead author and co-editor of O’Reilly Media's Creating Augmented and Virtual Realities: Theory and Practice for Next-Generation Spatial Computing, which debuted #1 in Amazon’s Game Programming category and has been translated into Chinese and Korean, reaching readers around the world.
I'm a proud UC Berkeley alumnus and was previously a fast.ai deep learning fellow through the University of San Francisco’s Deep Learning program (2017-2018) and Data Ethics inaugural class (2020).
Right now, I’m building TimeBite — along with new books, apps, and film projects.
