I'm a first year Ph.D. student at the University at Buffalo, where I study computer science and, specifically, mobile systems and machine learning. Previously, I worked at edX for a year, where I worked on all the stacks on the "full stack" - from accessible front-end components and CSS-tinkering, to countless management commands and APIs in Python and Django, to devops and system administration for VEDA, edX's video encoding and delivery pipeline. Before that, I graduated from Brandeis University with a degree in computer science.
