My Journey Till Now

Hey there! I'm a 25-year-old software engineer currently exploring new opportunities. I kickstarted my journey in computer science at Georgia Tech, where I graduated in 2020. Shortly after, I started my career in software engineering at a company called Itential.


At Itential, my main responsibilities included working on complex automations, crafting solutions that streamlined processes for our clients. From fine-tuning requirements in client calls to meticulously building and testing workflows using tools like Postman, my days were a blend of creativity and problem-solving. After a year of employment at this company, I embarked on a new chapter with Amazon.


This is where I joined the journey of their groundbreaking music app, AMP. AMP was a radio app that allowed anyone to host their own show / play music and talk to viewers. From midway into its development to its full-fledged launch, I witnessed the app's evolution firsthand. Initially delving into backend Java micro-services, I later found myself immersed in the world of Swift frontend development, crafting interfaces that brought AMP to life.


After the incredible experience at AMP, I took time off work to reflect on my path forward. That soul-searching led me to pursue a Masters program in Computer Science, where I'm currently working on diving deep into Artificial Intelligence. Now, in my first year of the program, I'm actively seeking chances to utilize my skills and knowledge, whether through full-time positions or internships, all the while learning from my coursework.
