What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters innovation and collaboration, where I can leverage my skills in software engineering to create impactful solutions while continuing to grow professionally.

As a dedicated Staff Software Engineer with over a decade of experience, I have honed my skills in developing high-performance, scalable web applications. My journey began at the University of California, Berkeley, where I earned my Master’s and Bachelor’s degrees in Computer Science. Since then, I have led significant projects at Salesforce and Snowflake, focusing on enhancing patient care coordination and data visualization.

At Salesforce, I spearheaded the development of a React.js micro frontend that improved real-time data visualization and reduced response times by 20%. My expertise in AWS services and microservices architecture has enabled me to create secure, scalable solutions that enhance operational efficiency. I am passionate about leveraging technology to improve healthcare outcomes and have integrated Generative AI services to streamline clinician workflows and boost patient engagement.

Throughout my career, I have collaborated with cross-functional teams to implement innovative solutions that drive results. I thrive in dynamic environments where I can contribute to meaningful projects and continue to grow as a professional. I am eager to bring my technical acumen and collaborative spirit to a forward-thinking organization.
