About

I'm a software engineer based in the Bay Area. I spend most of my time building products at the intersection of AI and developer tooling. Before that, I did research on distributed systems and spent a few years in fintech.

This blog is where I think out loud — about the things I'm building, reading, and learning. No particular schedule, just whenever something feels worth saying.
