About me: Full-stack Python engineer with an MS in Computer and Information Science from the University of Michigan. I build backend services, data pipelines, and LLM apps. At Divinity Science, I built a journaling web app. I also automated a 6-hour weekly research task into a 20-minute Scrapy run across 12 sources. Before this, I built a RAG app on AWS for 8,000+ students using LangChain, AstraDB, FastAPI, and React. I also built BirdEye, a Raspberry Pi wildlife monitor. BirdEye became my peer-reviewed master’s thesis. I want backend, full-stack, or applied AI roles.
