About

TLDR $\rightarrow$ You can view my CV here.

I am currently working as a data engineer at Amazon Web Services, where I focus on building large-scale data and machine learning pipelines.

Back in June 2023 I graduated from the MSCAPP program, a graduate degree offered by the University of Chicago Harris School of Public Policy and the University of Chicago Department of Computer Science.

Previously, I worked as a Research Engineer at the Mansueto Institute for Urban Innovation at the University of Chicago helping researchers do their work more efficiently and maintainable. Before graduate school I worked as a data scientist and occasionally as a data engineer for ConsiliumBots, an NGO that leverages economic theory and technology to make navigation in education markets easier for families and students. I was also a Predoctoral Fellow (a synonym for research assistant) at Yale’s Tobin Center for Economic Policy for Christopher Neilson, Seth Zimmerman, and John Eric Humphries where I cut my teeth in the trenches of academic research.

I completed a B.A. in Economics from Southern Connecticut State University, graduating in December 2016.

While working, I fell in love with software engineering after discovering that the digital part of the world around me was made by others, and that I could also contribute to its creation and improvement. My own interests lie within the intersection of the fields of education, economics, computer science and machine learning.
