From the sun-kissed beaches of Santa Monica to the prestigious halls of UC Berkeley, my journey into software engineering has been as thrilling as catching the perfect wave. My passion for software development was ignited in high school when I started my first business, building and operating aerial photography drones. Driven by a desire to improve my designs, abilities, and profits, I immersed myself in Physics and mathematics which eventually sparked an interest in Engineering but it wasn't until UC Berkeley that I fell in love with Computer Science.🌊 When I'm not crafting innovative software solutions, you'll likely find me in the ocean chasing whatever swell SoCal has to offerCurrently, I'm a Founding Full Stack Software Engineer at DSCO, where I've engineered innovative AI tools that harness image recognition to analyze social media content, significantly enhancing product discovery in video platforms like TikTok and Instagram. My experience also includes a Fullstack Engineering role at BlockBeat, where helped launch a robust news aggregation application, and at GreenVault, where I led the development of a groundbreaking cryptocurrency product.My project portfolio showcases my ability to handle large-scale challenges and deliver impactful solutions. Notably, I automated TikTok video processing with DSCO Media Match and developed a high-speed custom e-commerce solution with Pup.co. I've also built advanced software that enhanced a dataset of nearly 14 million creators, spanning seven major social media platforms. My expertise extends to constructing vector databases tailored for knowledge retrieval and fine-tuning with cutting-edge large language models like GPT-4.Specialties:Software Development, Programming Languages (Python, Typescript, JavaScript, Java, C++), Data Structures, Machine Learning, Software Engineering Methodologies, Testing.I'm always eager to connect with like-minded professionals and explore collaborative opportunities.
