Cataloger started with my mother's auction catalogs.

My mother, Anne Nouri, is an auctioneer. She wanted her team to spend less time on catalogs, but the tools she tried handled one item at a time. Each photo was uploaded on its own and each description written by hand, for hours.

Repetitive work frustrates me, and I like making slow processes fast. So I wrote scripts that drafted her team's descriptions in batches, and they saved the team hours right away.

Then I learned that other auctioneers had the same backlog, and I was encouraged to build for them too. Cataloger is the result.

I'm a data scientist with a dual major in Data Science and Computer Science from NYU's Courant Institute of Mathematical Sciences. I'm pursuing a master's degree at the Georgia Institute of Technology.

I've worked in quantitative finance at Citadel, founded PropertizeAI, a real estate machine learning startup, and held research roles in predictive analytics and alternative data analysis.
