About

Currently, I am a Senior Silicon Design Engineer at AMD working on SoC RTL Integration. I am also currently pursuing my Masters in Computer Engineering at Northeastern University. I graduated Northeastern University in 2024 with a B.S. in Computer Engineering, minoring in Physics, with a strong background in hardware and software development. My primary interests include low level hardware design using HDL and embedded software design. I am self-motivated, driven, and can adapt to any challenge presented. I enjoy cooperative environments and have excellent communication skills.
