Hi, I’m Nick Spang
I’m passionate about using technology to drive meaningful impact and solve real-world problems. My experience across academia, the public sector, enterprise tech, and startups gives me an insightful and effective approach to tackling challenges.
What I Do
Operationalizing AI Technology
I work at Pano AI, providing advanced wildfire mitigation solutions to enterprise power utilities across the US. Our AI powered camera stations rapidly detect wildfire ignitions and provide valuable situational awareness to first responders and wildfire managers.
Outdoor Adventure
Since my first backpacking trip as kid I have been in awe of the natural world’s rugged beauty. My favorite ways to get out are climbing, trail running, skiing, mountain biking, and backpacking. See my adventure log for info on my lastest trips.
Photography & Videography
I grew up in the age of film photography, where every shot had to count—especially on a remote adventure. That thrill of capturing fleeting moments stuck with me and turned into a love for documenting all kinds of adventures, big and small, with friends.
Photography & Videography
From early days in the darkroom with my mom to capturing some of the world's most stunning and remote locations, my passion for photography and videography has been a lifelong journey.
