About

Engineering software, especially technically complex projects, is my passion. From design to implementation, the process of iterating through problems is satisfying, especially when the finished product is clean, functional, and efficient.

Having worked at companies with strong engineering cultures, my attitude towards work focuses on not only shipping code, but also communicating as a team member.

Outside of Work, topics that interest me include Programming Language Design, Compilers, Software Architecture, and Technical Writing.

Outside of Coding, my hobbies include Binge-watching TV Shows, Collecting Lego, and Writing Assorted Non-fiction Pieces.

I graduated from Rutgers University - New Brunswick (Class of 2021) majoring in Computer Science (Honors College Trustee Scholar, Computer Science Department Honors, Dean's List Recipient since Enrollment).
