About
Currently pursuing an MSTI Robotics at the University of Washington. As a software engineer with a strong product mindset, I bridge technical depth in AI and robotics with an entrepreneurial drive to build innovative solutions from concept to scale.
As the founder of Tulibot, an award-winning assistive tech platform (recognized by Google, Meta, and Microsoft) with over 5,000 users, I have extensive experience in full-lifecycle product development. I seamlessly transition between setting the product vision, defining requirements, and diving into the code to ensure high-quality engineering execution.
My engineering focus is heavily centered on advanced robotics and AI—leveraging computer vision, machine learning, and hardware-software integration to build intelligent systems. I excel at mapping industry trends into technical opportunities, collaborating across cross-functional teams, and using performance metrics to iteratively refine complex technical products.
