02 / ABOUT ME
About me
I grew up in San Francisco and consider myself a San Francisco native. I went to Lawton Alternative for K–8, Lowell High School, and UC Santa Cruz for college. I’m now back in the Bay Area working at Apple. Northern California has always been home.
I’m curious by nature and genuinely enjoy infrastructure engineering. I’m also an avid gamer. I play games like Satisfactory, Dyson Sphere Program, and Oxygen Not Included, where building and improving systems is part of the fun.
My home projects include autonomous hydroponic setups, local AI inference systems, and self-hosted tools and game servers. I enjoy working across hardware and software: writing the code, connecting the components, and getting everything to run together.
Outside of that, I enjoy cooking, cars, traveling, and science fiction.
