I am a CMU SCS alumni with a strong interest in optimization and math. I'm currently working for AppLovin in Palo Alto on machine learning infrastructure.
While at CMU here is what I did:
- Teaching Assistant 15-451: Algorithm Design and Analysis for 3 semesters (spring 2025, fall 2025, spring 2026) under multiple professors including: Richard Peng, Danny Sleator, and Daniel Anderson.
- SWE intern at Prescient Design (Genentech). Working on a model serving platform to provide scientists with protein property prediction models. Used Ray as the model serving platform, along with a Ruby on Rails backend and React/Vite frontend experience.
- Undergrad Researcher: CMU Robotics Exploration Laboratory working on satellite flight systems under prof. Zachary Manchester (now at MIT). I worked on 3 satellite projects, PocketQube, PyCubed-mini, and Argus. For all of these projects I was developing low level systems like device drivers, task schedulers, and data management systems.
- SWE intern at Claudius Legal Intelligence working on full-stack development with GCP, React, and Python Django. Overhauled the website for this startup, which unfortunately appears to now be defunct.
Fun Fact: I was actually a student athlete at CMU! I ran cross country/track and field.
