About
I work on reliability of large-scale financial production systems and use AI as a personal force multiplier to build internal-style tools and data-heavy side projects. My background spans fintech, edtech, and media. I hold an MS in Business Analytics from UC Davis and a BS in Computer Science from University at Buffalo.
