CS student at UCLA who likes shipping things people actually use — from hackathon-winning AI agents to a Go telemetry pipeline pushing 55K events/sec.
This summer I was a Meta × MLH Production Engineering Fellow, digging into Linux internals, CI/CD and observability. Before that I interned at Boundary RSS, shipped a merged fix to Open Energy Dashboard, and led software for a Mars rover team. Two-time hackathon winner (LA Hacks, BruinAI × AWS).
