About

I'm a software engineer with a background in systems engineering. I primarily work on backend systems, specializing in large scale distributed systems. I have also developed several software engineering training programs and interview pipelines for corporations and universities such as Amazon, BlackRock, and Yale. Outside of work, I host the NYC Coders meetup (the largest DS&A meetup group in NYC) where I develop and lead workshops on data structures, algorithms, system design, networking, and other computer science and software engineering topics.
