Kyle Johnson
I spend my days putting AI to work, and my evenings building small tools.
Marine Corps sergeant, then computer science and statistics at Columbia, then six years as a data scientist at Meta. In 2024 I founded Monument Labs, a small studio that ships AI products for real workflows. Today I work on AI strategy and architecture at Wells Fargo in Richmond, Virginia.
