How to pronounce my name: Tee-Bo—it's French!

Portrait

I am a staff research scientist at Google Deepmind in NYC. I work on ML for language and generative AI, particularly post-training, evaluation, using tools, factuality, and multilinguality. Lately, I have been focusing on Gemini.

In a previous life, I was working on databases and visualization. I was a PhD student at the University of Amsterdam and CWI (the Netherlands), then a postdoc at Columbia.

I am also a music nerd—when I am not at the office, you may find me play with a band, an orchestra or enjoy one of New York's many music venues. I also like to apply ML to music, see examples here.
