About Me

I am a first-generation immigrant with a passion for technology, problem-solving, and building meaningful digital experiences. I specialize in full-stack development using Java, Spring Boot, and React, and I'm expanding my expertise into AI-powered applications with Python, FastAPI, and LangChain.

My journey from operations and education into tech has shaped how I approach engineering—with empathy, adaptability, and a focus on building solutions that create real-world impact. I'm passionate about continuous learning and translating complex technical challenges into reliable, user-centered applications.
