About

I'm a highly motivated second-year Computer Engineering Student at UCSB with 6+ years of experience in the CS field. I'm a lifelong learner, well-versed in full-stack development as well as AI/ML. With 2+ years of field experience, I thrive when asked to problem-solve.

Experience

SoftAcuity Inc.

Software Engineering Intern

2023 - Present

I engineered a full-stack facial biometrics system onto a distributed Nvidia Jetson system using Python/C++, and Implemented multiple Neural Network models on VPU, using feedback from depth perception & head position models to update frontend progress bar & action instructions. My contributions resulted in a 80% reduction in cost, 50% reduction in latency, and a 20% decrease in False Acceptance Rate.

Outlier AI

Software Developer - AI Trainer

2023 - Present

I evaluated the quality of AI-generated code in C++/Java/Python/JavaScript, working with multiple teams to fine-tune 4+ LLM models. I debugged 450+ code responses, writing test scripts to ensure correct outputs and efficient run time, increasing model accuracy by 5%

UCSB

Java Instructor

2023 - 2024

I was chosen to instruct Java programming course for class of 50+. I taught data structures & algorithms stack/graphs/hashing, facilitating student understanding of 10+ Leetcode problems and examples. I received positive student feedback, securing repeat teaching assignments.
