Incoming on the Dev Infra team. Sentry is the error monitoring and observability platform engineers everywhere rely on to understand what's breaking and why.

Co-founding a startup that makes classrooms accessible for low-vision students: our platform uses computer vision to automatically zoom into what professors reference and delivers it in real time to students' devices. Went from zero to 20+ classrooms in pilot testing, won Forty Acres Founders (1st place + Audience Choice, $20K), selected as Student Startup Alternate and pitched in front of Garry Tan at SXSW, named one of Poets & Quants' Most Disruptive Business School Startups of 2025, and were SharkNinja Innovation Challenge finalists.

Built an internal credit analytics dashboard that cut analyst time-to-insight by 44%, a Python anomaly detection service for flagging critical credit deviations, and an LLM-powered agent for text-to-visualization using LangChain.

Volunteer management software for a school-based mentoring nonprofit serving 500+ mentors across Central Texas. Cut manual data entry by 80% and saved 20+ staff hours a month.

E-commerce prototype and RESTful API development for a Houston-based flat rolled steel trading company. Built 12 APIs with DRF, reducing data retrieval time by 30%.

Working on making CPUs faster without relying on expensive neural networks. I engineer C++ prefetching heuristics that replace black-box deep learning models with transparent, hardware-realizable logic, then benchmark them against industry standards (IP-Stride, Next-Line) using SPEC CPU traces.

Robot learning research: teaching a robot arm to pick up and manipulate objects it's never seen before, using behavior cloning from 3D human motion capture data. Improved success rate on novel objects by 14%.

Selected as 1 of 7 Engineering Fellows from 150+ applicants in UT's premier tech org. I scope software projects for Austin nonprofits, lead cross-functional student teams through the full build cycle, and teach JavaScript on the side.

I started this at 12 selling handmade jewelry to fund medical care for patients who couldn't afford it. It now runs on a full e-commerce platform and has donated $30,000+ funding 69 ophthalmologic surgeries.
