Before engineering he spent six years as a 7th grade math teacher and Teach For America corps member, giving him strong mentoring, communication, and curriculum-style problem decomposition skills. He is a Turing School back-end engineering alum with a B.S. in Economics and English, blending analytical rigor with clear writing. Colleagues describe him as a practitioner who pairs hands-on coding with thoughtful system design and a knack for translating complex concepts for diverse stakeholders.
