About

I'm a Software Engineer at GitHub, where I'm working in the intersection of AI and Backend Engineering, on GitHub Copilot. Outside work, I'm captivated by the natural world and always strive to learn more. Currently I'm pursuing degrees out of interest/enjoyment in Mathematics and Natural Sciences.
