About Me
I’m a Computer Engineering student at the University of British Columbia with experience building software and data systems in production environments. Through internships and project work, I’ve worked on backend services, internal platforms, and data pipelines used by real teams.
My background spans full-stack development, analytics infrastructure, and systems-oriented projects; from schema and API design to workflow automation and production monitoring. I enjoy working close to the system, understanding constraints, and making practical engineering tradeoffs.
I’m currently focused on deepening my experience in lower-level and systems-focused development, building a stronger foundation in how software interacts with hardware, performance, and underlying infrastructure.
