Software Engineer

About

I'm a software engineer based in NYC with a background in Applied Mathematics and Computer Science from Harvard University (2023). Most recently, I worked as a quantitative software engineer at Two Sigma, where I specialized in building analytical tools with a focus on portfolio optimization and market impact modeling. I'm grateful that I got to work on some very cool projects while being surrounded by kind and brilliant colleagues. Currently, I'm taking some time off. Follow my trip.
