About me

I grew up in Southern California and went to school at UC Berkeley where I double-majored in physics and computer science. When I first got out of college, I went to work for the US Dept of Energy at the Hanford Site in eastern Washington. During my time at Hanford, I built modeling software for chemical engineers whose job is to plan nuclear waste treatment activities.

A few months into the Coronavirus pandemic, I switched gears and joined Microsoft Azure’s subscription management dev team. At Microsoft, I worked on public-facing APIs and batch automation to manage customers’ Azure subscriptions. I worked at Microsoft for a little over a year.

I moved to Google in 2022-06. Now I’m a SWE-SRE (site-reliability engineer) working on automation to protect the health of Google Cloud Storage’s (GCS) metadata service. I build batch processes to perform preventative maintenance of the service and take on-call rotations where I’m the first human line of defense for anything that goes bump in the night. I also build tooling for site reliability engineers to use in the event of an emergency.
