Hi! I'm a computer science student at Queens College, graduating in 2025, now seeking my first software engineering role.

I most recently interned at Pharmesol AI, helping out build out their backend APIs using FastAPI and integrating LLM Voice Agents using Retell AI. I also was responsible for creating dashboards in React using TremorJS

I'm now most interested in backend engineering, with a focus on observability, containerization, and distributed systems.
