About

I am currently a software engineer at Google working on ads optimization and recommendations.

Prior to joining Google, I was a software engineer/data scientist at Microsoft working on a variety of research economics and machine learning problems related to Microsoft’s cloud compute business - Microsoft Azure. During my time there, I had the great fortune of working with and reporting to the Senior Director of Economics in Azure, Patrick Hummel. I’ve previously interned as a software engineer at The Blackstone Group and a researcher at Cornell Tech.

Before starting my career as a software engineer, I attended Cornell University from 2015 - 2019 where I studied Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, and Business.

While at Cornell, I was an undergraduate researcher in the Human Robot Collaboration and Companionship Lab under the supervision of Guy Hoffman. My research focused on studying side-by-side collaborative design between humans and intelligent agents. I also co-authored several publications including one which won Best Paper at the 2018 Design Computing and Cognition conference.
