  I'm a Software Engineer with a specialization in Infrastructure. I've been working at Cruise for the past 3 years on a job scheduling system, responsible for running millions of simulations every day. Helping to build the tools that make the car go. I'm currently at Amazon, NY working on payments distribution.

In my free time, I like to exercise, travel, hang with friends, and learn new tech. I love working in team environments and am passionate about bringing projects to fruition. I'm also a big Real Estate person, so would definitely love to chat about that as well.

Shoot me an email if you'd like to connect/chat.
