What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that challenges my analytical skills and fosters growth in a collaborative environment.

I am a disciplined and systematic learner with a strong background in the automotive and logistics industries. My hands-on experience in these fields has laid a solid foundation for my B.S. in Applied Physics, equipping me with essential engineering and mathematical skills. I thrive on challenges and continuously seek opportunities to expand my knowledge and expertise.

In my recent role as a LLM Prompt Engineer, I created and reviewed complex math and physics problems for a Large Language Model, ensuring high-quality responses. My experience as a Student Assistant Researcher allowed me to analyze TESS's light data using Python, leading to significant findings about exoplanets. I also have a proven track record in customer service and sales, having excelled as a Professional Parts Person at O’Reilly Auto Parts.
