About

Who's this guy?

I'm a Computer Science major at The University of Texas at Dallas (Class of 2028) with a minor in Finance. I like building things that ship — from AI-powered SaaS products to low-latency Go APIs and data pipelines.

Across internships at SailPoint, Goldman Sachs, Serent Capital, and Ojo Labs, I've worked the full stack: shipping features used by thousands, cutting API latency, automating security workflows, and deploying with Docker, Jenkins, and Azure.
