## About

```text
At Microsoft, I built and launched an AI telemetry agent that turns natural-language questions into telemetry queries, analysis, charts, and root-cause insights. I also enabled agentic coding across Microsoft repositories and worked on bringing Copilot and AI agents into mobile app experiences.

Earlier at Microsoft, I led transcription work across Word and OneNote and owned reliability for voice and transcription services. At Cadence Design Systems, I developed an algorithm for path-based analysis that improved customer runtime by about two hours; at Samsung Research Institute, I developed tools and platform features for app performance and memory analysis.
