About

I'm a recent computer science graduate from Yeshiva University. I built many projects including a scheduling app with the Firebase API and a multithreaded transaction processing system. I'm also knowledgeable in database design. I'm a comfortable Java and Python programmer and also have experience with relational and non-relational data models (MongoDB, Spark, Redis).
