work experience
Professional problem-solver who occasionally writes code. Turned complex business requirements into elegant solutions while keeping both servers and stakeholders running smoothly.

May 2025 - Present
I recently joined Dune Security, a cutting-edge cybersecurity company that's revolutionizing how organizations manage human risk—the leading cause of security breaches. Instead of generic security training that treats everyone the same, Dune creates personalized security experiences tailored to each individual's role, behavior, and risk level.
I'm excited to be building innovative solutions with a close-knit, talented team as we develop the next generation of adaptive security tools. There are some exciting projects on the horizon that I'm looking forward to sharing more about as they develop!

Aug 2024 - Jan 2025
I built Nutripair's restaurant web portal from scratch, creating a platform that helps people find nearby restaurants with detailed allergen and caloric information for their entire menus. The comprehensive dashboard I developed allows restaurants to easily upload and manage their menu data, making dining safer and more informed for customers with dietary restrictions or nutritional goals.
I implemented secure user authentication and developed key features like special holiday hours management and restaurant group functionality. Working in 2-week development sprints, I maintained consistent code quality through regular reviews and updates, ensuring the platform remained reliable and adaptable as new features were added.

Jan 2024 - May 2024
As one of three founding engineers, I helped build Tramona's travel platform from the ground up, making key architectural decisions that shaped the entire product. The platform I helped create now serves around 20,000 active users.
I built their referral system with integrated cashback functionality that increased referral earnings by 250%, and collaborated with designers to revamp the user experience, boosting sign-ups by 30%. I also developed a Price Estimation system that compares user budgets against real market data, improving request success rates by 80%.
To support rapid growth, I led a complete technical rebuild using modern tools that made the platform 70% faster. Even after moving on, it's rewarding to see the platform continuing to thrive and serve thousands of travelers.

Jun 2023 - Oct 2023
After proving myself as the solo engineer who built LeadIB from scratch, I was promoted to lead the technical direction of the platform. In this role, I worked closely with the product team to not only maintain our growing infrastructure but also strategically plan new features and products as the company expanded.
One of my key projects was completely redesigning the administrative dashboard that our internal team used to manage the platform. I transformed it from a clunky, hard-to-navigate interface into an intuitive tool that made it much easier for staff to visualize data and make quick decisions about student progress and platform performance.
I also continued optimizing the technical foundation, restructuring how our databases were organized to make everything run 15% faster for students, while implementing various performance improvements that boosted the overall platform speed by 18%. This was crucial as we scaled to serve thousands of students who relied on the platform for their IB exam preparation.

Sep 2020 - Jun 2023
I built LeadIB's entire education platform from the ground up as their solo engineer, creating an online prep tool that helped International Baccalaureate students study for their exams. Working across design, development, and deployment, I delivered a complete MVP in just 2 months that allowed students to practice with expert-curated question banks, generate custom tests, and get personalized feedback.
The platform I created reached 6,000 students worldwide within its first year. Along the way, I modernized the user experience by rebuilding the original application with a more intuitive, mobile-friendly interface that boosted student engagement by 32% and kept 20% more users coming back regularly. I also optimized the backend systems to make the platform faster and more reliable, cutting down search times and improving overall performance so students could focus on studying rather than waiting for pages to load.

Graduated in Computer Science, where I learned that Stack Overflow is just as important as algorithms. Formally trained in the art of turning “it works on my machine” into “it works everywhere”.
