Rilyn Han

Hi! I'm a researcher working on pretraining at a frontier AI lab. My research interests broadly lie in multimodality and reasoning.

I've co-founded / helped build several high-potential startups, including FortyFive Labs, Catalyst, Odi Technologies, Context, and a few stealth ventures. I'm also an investor, partnering up with exceptional founders since inception.

Previously, I've held several research roles at frontier AI labs and university labs, where I worked on spatial intelligence (see Google Scholar) and deep model-based reinforcement learning. Before that, I worked in TMT Investment Banking at Goldman Sachs and Quantitative Trading at Citadel Securities.

I hold a B.S. in Computer Science & a B.A. in Film and Media Studies from Yale, and a degree in Piano Performance from the Juilliard School.
