Engineering with a bias toward things people can actually use.

I build things end to end and ship them. Right now that means Asterlo, an AI outreach platform running in production; before it, a native iOS workout planner on the App Store and an AI coach for international students I built solo for a hackathon. I start at NYU in autumn 2026, reading toward Computer Science and Mathematics.

What interests me is the boring half of a product: the approval gate that stops a bad email from sending, the idempotent job that will not double-charge, the migration that runs the same way twice. Anyone can make a demo work once. I like the part where it keeps working when nobody is watching it.

So I care about clear data models, fast feedback loops, and interfaces that explain themselves. A project feels finished to me when the seams are gone — and when I can hand it to someone who has never seen it and not have to stand behind them explaining.
