About

I enjoy building practical systems that scale and stay maintainable.

My core work is backend and platform engineering, with a focus on fraud-adjacent systems, data-driven decisioning, and tools that help teams move faster with confidence.

Who I Am

I am from Los Angeles, with an academic path that ran through San Diego: a B.Sc. in Mathematics-Computer Science from the University of California San Diego and an M.Sc. in Big Data Analytics from San Diego State University. Today I work on fraud detection systems for API Fraud Services within DE&E Product + Technology. Funnily enough, I originally joined the same team as an intern back in 2021.

Outside work, I am big into cars, open-source contributing, and my three cats.

How I Work

I prefer direct ownership and clear interfaces: define the target behavior, instrument it early, and iterate with real usage data. I care about readable code, useful docs, and making handoffs smooth.

Engineering Priorities

  • Reliability first for critical paths and production workflows.
  • Simple, explicit APIs over clever hidden behavior.
  • Fast feedback loops through automation and observability.
  • Interfaces that make complex systems understandable.

Collaboration Style

  • Ship in small slices with measurable checkpoints.
  • Keep communication crisp, especially across teams.
  • Treat docs and runbooks as part of the deliverable.
  • Bias toward mentoring and unblocking others quickly.

Academic Background

My undergraduate background is in Mathematics-Computer Science at UC San Diego. A lot of how I think about software still comes from that foundation: abstraction that earns its keep, precise interfaces, and a lasting interest in functional programming and its relationship to category theory. I also completed an M.Sc. in Big Data Analytics at San Diego State University, which sharpened the data-systems side of how I work.
