Dedicated professional skilled in business operations and software engineering.
What I'm looking for
I am a dedicated and hardworking professional with a diverse skill set that spans business operations and software engineering. My journey has taken me through various roles, where I have consistently strived to learn new technologies and improve processes. At Mochi Health (despite stepping into an unfamiliar role), I played a pivotal role in human resources during a significant acquisition, focusing first on building my knowledge and skills to ultimately deliver on employee satisfaction and retention through effective payroll solutions and departmental improvements.
In my previous position as Chief of Staff at Dexterity Capital, I led initiatives that enhanced our company culture and recruiting efforts. I successfully built a 20,000 core CPU compute cluster, which resulted in substantial cost savings for our model development process. My technical skills in Python, Typescript, and cloud network architecture allowed me to develop innovative solutions, including an Applicant Tracking System and a command-line transfer utility that streamlined operations for our trading team.
My experience also includes roles in research and marketing, where I honed my ability to work collaboratively with diverse teams. As a co-founder of an alternative rock band, I developed my creativity and leadership skills, which I carry into my professional endeavors. I am passionate about bringing out the best in those around me and continuously seeking opportunities for growth and improvement.
