Hey, I'm Atara Weinreb. I'm a creative engineer and designer exploring how AI can expand what we build and how we build it. I'm currently at Snapchat.

Outside of work, you’ll probably find me painting (mostly portraiture), wandering through Central Park, or at SoulCycle trying to clear my head. I also love Broadway and musical theatre (I’ve seen Wicked four times!), even though I can’t sing a note. If any of this resonates, please reach out! I love making new friends on the internet :)
