03 About
I’m based in San Francisco, working as a Forward Deployed Engineer at Exa. Before that, I worked at Distyl and Microsoft, and studied Computer Science at UCLA.
Outside of work, I ride an Indian Super Chief, take photos, and spend a lot of time trying restaurants and cafes. I also photograph events for friends.
