I started in Computer Science because I loved the precision of building systems. Along the way, I realized that the real power lies in the data moving *through* those systems.
Today, my focus is on the intersection of software engineering and statistical modeling. I bridge the gap between building robust code and extracting technical insights that drive strategy.
Whether it's optimizing data extraction pipelines to save hundreds of research hours or managing high-concurrency security protocols, I prioritize system integrity and measurable efficiency.
