Software Engineer
I feel incredibly lucky to have found a career that brings me so much joy. I care deeply about building great systems and writing detailed documentation.

About
A little context on how I work and what matters to me.
I am a backend software engineer who enjoys turning ideas into plans and plans into reality. Recently, my work has been focused on data ETL pipelines and data quality. It is extremely important to me to build well-designed systems that are easy to test, maintain, and extend.
I love working with others whether it is live brainstorming, async planning, or pair programming, but I also appreciate uninterrupted blocks where I can put in my headphones and lock in. Right now my job is fully remote-friendly, but I go into the office 3+ times a week for a sense of community and because who doesn't like to get dressed up for ice coffee, yogurt bowls, and lunch?
Outside of work, I value creative and physical activities to keep me grounded and inspired. I recently ran my first half marathon, and I love sewing, reading, lifting weights, and Pilates. I'm always down to see live comedy in NYC and can ocasionally be convinced to get up during open mic.
Education
Where I built the foundation for how I think about engineering.
2021 — 2025
Stanford University
Focused on information systems, studying how data is stored, transmitted, and processed in large-scale systems. Developed strong foundations in databases, distributed systems, and data-driven application design.
2025 - Present
Stanford University
Focused on human-computer interaction and machine learning, with an emphasis on building user-centered, data-driven applications. Explored applied ML, NLP, and product design through project-based coursework. I'm wrapping up my final two classes alongside my work as a full-time SWE at Reddit.
Selected work
A brief overview of my recent work in software engineering and management.
Summer 2024
Built backend systems on Reddit’s SEO team to automate alt-text generation for images using OCR and internal ML models, improving accessibility and search indexing. Developed pipelines that generated alt-text on Post Detail Page render, integrating with Kafka consumers and PostgreSQL services.
March 2024-June 2025
Stanford University
Partnered with two co-coordinators to manage operations for 100+ section leaders each term. Led hiring for 200+ applicants per quarter across written, whiteboarding, and debugging interviews; conducted performance reviews; coordinated section room assignments, tutoring schedules, and exam grading; and presented quarterly program outcomes to department leadership.
Summer 2023
Recidiviz
Built internal dashboards using React and TypeScript to automate eligibility workflows for correctional caseworkers, replacing manual review processes. Implemented SQL-based logic to evaluate eligibility criteria and auto-populated key data while surfacing case notes in a sidebar to streamline decision-making.
Projects
A sample of past work in research, student-led organizations, and side projects.
Built Python tools for an astrophysics research project (published in the Astrophysical Journal) to measure extragalactic contamination in simulated maps of the sky. Helped validate improved models used in cosmic microwave background (CMB) research by analyzing correlations between emission and galaxy distributions.
Led development of a Python curriculum for CS education outreach, creating beginner-friendly lessons and project-based exercises to introduce core programming concepts. Designed materials to support scalable instruction and enable club members to teach students with little to no prior coding experience.
Frustrated with fitness tracking apps that didn’t meet my standards, I started building my own. This app focuses on simplicity and ease of use to support consistency, with core features including exercise and rep tracking and custom interval workout creation.
Beyond work
Small things that shape how I show up.
Sewing
I start with vision boards in Figma then bring my designs to life!
Comedy
I watch standup for laughs and do standup to build bravery and humility.
Reading
I read nonfiction to start my day and fiction on the subway and before bed.
Running
I am a proud slow runner! I ran the NYC Half at a steady 12 min pace (2:40:42).
Lifting
I alternate the same two workouts (upper + lower) 5 days a week. I love routine!
Fitness Classes
I love Barry's Bootcamp, OrangeTheory and Pilates.
Contact
You don't need a good reason to reach out!
I like meeting new people and would love to connect.
