Profile Picture

About Me

I'm a software engineer with 3+ year of hands-on experience building reliable, fault-tolerant cloud services. I completed a B.S in Software Engineering in 2023 (GPA 3.36/4.0). I enjoy turning ideas into production-grade systems and working closely with cross-functional teams.

I'm actively seeking research assistantship or research internship opportunities where I can contribute engineering depth, collaborate with faculty and students, and help produce meaningful results. Curiosity has driven me since childhood—I love exploring new ideas and turning them into working systems.
