I am pursuing an M.S. in Electrical Engineering at the University of Washington, with a B.S. in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science from UC Berkeley. My interests sit at the intersection of machine learning, computer security, operating systems, and large-scale data systems.

My background spans academic research, engineering roles, and military systems administration. I served in the USMC as a Systems Administrator and left as a Sergeant, then worked at the Naval Information Warfare Center Pacific (NIWC-PAC) before Berkeley. At Berkeley I built a data portal for electron microscopy analysis at Lawrence Berkeley National Lab and trained multimodal models at Squishy Robotics on methane-leaking oil and gas equipment.

Today I focus on AI agents, multimodal architectures, and cloud-native engineering with tools like PyTorch, Docker, GCP, FastAPI, and React — turning complex requirements into production-ready systems that bridge hardware, software, and user workflows.

Outside of work and study, I read about ML breakthroughs and where agent collaboration, data pipelines, and secure distributed systems are headed next.
