i build software that’s reliable, fast, and a little bit fun to use.
Petra is end-to-end. We measure how a company gets surfaced across the major LLMs, figure out why, and give teams the levers to change it. I work on all of it: ingestion, evals, the product surface, and the playbook underneath.
new-grad SWE roles starting summer / fall 2026.
CS student at Northwestern, finishing my B.A./M.S. in June 2026. What I care about most is reliability: software users don’t have to think twice about.
I pick up tools quickly and ship with Claude Code daily. The interesting work is figuring out where AI helps and where it gets in the way.
Outside of code: mechanical keyboards, slab climbing, anime, sichuanese food, and two cats who hold strong opinions about my commit messages.
i build software that’s reliable, easy to use,
and quietly satisfying. all three, no compromises.
the way a good keyboard should feel, or a clean boulder problem should move.
The whole point is that it gets out of your way. Split a restaurant bill without signing up, downloading anything, or starting another group-chat thread. Snap the receipt, Claude pulls every line item, and everyone joins via a link and claims their items in real time. Under the hood: WebSockets keep state in sync, Redis handles async upload jobs, and a gRPC microservice calls the Claude API to parse prices, taxes, and tips.
Built and scaled a queue platform with reliable real-time updates. Intelligent question grouping cut duplicate handling and reduced wait times by 25%. Deployed across Northwestern CS courses.
the teal cursor is a stand-in until i record a real run. press start whenever.
this is best on a laptop with a real keyboard.
