What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that challenges my analytical skills and offers opportunities for growth in a dynamic environment.

As a Bachelor of Computer Science and a professional poker player, I thrive on challenges that require strategic thinking and data-driven decision-making. With over 10 million hands played in online pot-limit Omaha cash games, I have honed my skills in logical thinking and game theory, allowing me to maximize the expected value of my plays.

My professional journey began at IBM, where I developed mobile solutions for IBM Maximo Asset Management using Java. This experience, coupled with my internships in software development, has equipped me with a solid foundation in programming and problem-solving. I am self-motivated and disciplined, balancing my poker career with continuous learning and improvement.
