A recent University of Massachusetts Amherst computer science graduate and incoming Georgia Tech MCS student, he blends academic rigor with startup grit. His experience ranges from designing scalable Python web-scraping systems at Eduporium to supporting undergraduate coursework at UMass, showing both product-facing and educational technical strengths. A long-term hospitality role as Rebel Restaurant’s longest-tenured bartender demonstrates customer focus, resilience, and team leadership under pressure.
