Software Engineer โข Product Builder
Iโm an engineer-at-heart who enjoys building useful things, building them well, and scaling them meaningfully.
My work spans consumer products, infrastructure products, GenAI, and 0โ1 product journeys.
I care about clarity, utility, performance, taste, and empathy in both code and collaboration.
Currently pursuing my MS in Computer Science @ Northeastern, wherein Iโm revisiting (and reinvesting in) fundamentals for the next phase of my career in this AI-native world.
