01.About Me

I'm currently pursuing a B.S. in Electrical Engineering & Computer Science at UC Berkeley, interested in data, infrastructure, and product systems that sit beneath the surface.

I've worked on platform and infra teams at Microsoft and Verizon, where I got exposed to how real constraints - scale, reliability, enterprise requirements - shape product decisions far more than ideal designs. I've also been involved in applied ML research at Berkeley focused on audio synthesis.

Outside of school and work, I enjoy building things with friends, exploring side-projects, and staying active. I spend a lot of time hiking and backpacking, planning travel, and training for long-distance runs. I also play guitar and love jamming with friends.

02.Where I've Worked

Product Manager Intern @ Microsoft

Summer 2025

  • ▹Worked on platform-facing features within Azure, with a focus on edge and on-prem deployments
  • ▹Collaborated with engineers and PMs on VM-level features, roadmap planning, and technical tradeoffs
  • ▹Spent time learning how hypervisors, infrastructure constraints, and enterprise requirements shape product decisions

03.Some Things I've Built

Featured Project

PersonaLens

Customer segmentation product for wellness and supplement brands. Worked with 3 design partners to define requirements and build a system focused on channel attribution, creative testing, and how customers respond to different strategies.

Featured Project

Autodifferentiation Library

Built a small automatic differentiation engine with dynamic graphs and backprop to understand how modern ML frameworks trade off flexibility, performance, and developer experience.

Featured Project

Audio Classification with Vision Transformers

Repurposed vision models for audio classification by training on spectrograms, focusing on where the abstraction works and where it breaks.
