I'm a CS student at Georgia Tech. I like distributed systems and infrastructure, and until May I taught data structures to a lot of people.

01 Work & experience

Software Engineer Intern, Databricks — May 2026–August 2026
Worked on the Code & CI team on release infrastructure.
Teaching Assistant, Georgia Tech (CS 1332) — Jan 2025–May 2026
Hosted office hours, gave lecture recitations, and graded projects & homeworks.
Software Development Engineer Intern, Amazon — May–Aug 2025
Worked on the pipeline that enriches $50M/year of transaction data (AWS Lambda). Got tax linkage to 99.99% accuracy at 12 transactions/second with Athena and Glue, then built the React views that surface those tax insights across 10M+ transactions. Wrote about it here.

Architect Design AI
A whiteboard for system design. You draw the architecture, AI grades it.
Data Structures Visualization Tool
Animates data structures and algorithms step by step. Nearly every CS 1332 student at Georgia Tech uses it. Plain JavaScript and Canvas — no framework.
Boovie
Turns a book PDF into a 30-second movie trailer using Gemini, Imagen, and RunwayML. We got to present it to Google's AI leadership.
