01 / Experience

Learning by building.

May — Aug 2026Kentucky

LimeLabels

Founding Engineer Intern

Built retail middleware connecting five POS systems to electronic shelf labels. Worked across FastAPI, React, and PostgreSQL, with tenant isolation and durable sync workflows using Temporal.

Designed the Supabase data layer, optimized production indexes, and helped resolve a large-catalog pricing dispatch failure.

BuildWithin

Machine Learning Intern

Built candidate–job matching pipelines using LLM embeddings and LangSmith, reducing manual review time by 30%. Traced incorrect matches to prompt and retrieval failures and helped improve the pipeline.

Cleaned and structured more than 2,000 candidate records to support matching.

Indiana University

Undergraduate Instructor & Mathematics Teaching Assistant

Lead weekly Discrete Math discussions for 40 students and tutor across five or more math courses. Teaching keeps me thinking carefully about how to explain an idea, not just how to solve it.

Coco

Applied AI · Production product

School life, a little simpler.

Coco helps parents keep up with school calendars and camp registrations.

I build and maintain its calendar agent, including ownership-scoped tool calls and a 19-case evaluation suite. I also built the camps data pipeline and internal admin dashboard.

Pod

Developer contribution · Dating app

A product built around connection.

Pod brings people together through short video introductions and planned in-person dates. I helped develop it as part of the team.

I contributed to iOS development and testing using Swift and Xcode. Working on Pod is how I learned those tools and gained experience building with a product team.

Training Dashboard

Personal project

Built for the routine I actually follow.

A dashboard I made to bring my training and meal planning into one place.

It brings together a weekly training schedule, gym and home modes, daily meal plans, and macro summaries. A small, practical tool that fits my life at university.

A little more human.

I like understanding how things work, then building something I can actually use. My interests take me between backend engineering, applied AI, and the everyday problems that make a good project.

Outside of that, I’m usually watching soccer, spending time with friends, or meeting someone new. I love space, Interstellar, and Game of Thrones—the northern landscape here is a small nod to that.

I also served as Treasurer and Philanthropy Chair for IU’s Middle Eastern Student Association. Bringing people together matters to me as much as the work itself.

Always happy to build, connect, and keep improving.
