About Me

I'm currently pursuing my Master's degree in Information Management at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, building on my 5+ years of experience in software and data engineering.

My passion lies in creating scalable analytics solutions and machine learning systems that transform raw data into actionable business insights. I thrive on solving complex data challenges and building systems that can handle massive scale while maintaining reliability and performance.

When I'm not working with data pipelines or building dashboards, I enjoy mentoring junior engineers and staying up-to-date with the latest developments in data engineering and machine learning technologies.
