I'm a software engineer with experience building scalable systems and user-focused products. From 2022-2025, I worked on the EC2 Nitro team at Amazon Web Services, where I developed internal infrastructure, automated deployment systems, and led the design of dashboards used to support business decisions.
I left AWS because I found myself wanting to build with more immediate impact. I'm especially drawn to building at the intersection of AI and consumer technology.
Currently I am helping Perdiem, a startup rethinking how social interaction and transactions blend together. I focus on backend development: designing APIs, shaping the data model, and supporting a growing product in close collaboration with the founder and engineering team.
In my free time, I enjoy long walks, reading, and traveling.
