About

Owen Kobasz

My work blends critical thinking skills with technical proficiency, building applications that integrate AI and machine learning.

Before entering the world of computer science I studied the liberal arts at the great books school St. John's College in Santa Fe, New Mexico. After graduating I cut my teeth in the Fine Art world as a gallery director, curator, and editor, where I learned to manage projects and communicate effectively.

Outside of work, I'm a cyclist, photographer, and outdoor enthusiast. My ideal world is one with strong communities, sustainable systems, and easily accessible nature.

Cyclone is an AI-powered cycling route generator that creates personalized loops and point-to-point rides based on distance, elevation, and surface preferences. Riders describe their ideal route in natural language, and the system combines GPT-powered waypoint generation with routing engines like GraphHopper, Valhalla, and OpenStreetMap to build engaging, GPX-compatible rides with elevation data and turn-by-turn navigation.
