I'm a software engineer passionate about building tools that make government data more accessible and transparent. My work sits at the intersection of civic technology and AI technologies.

In my professional experience, I've worked across a variety of settings — from established companies like Microsoft and Avature to consulting SAP firms like Schneider-Neureither and Partners. This has given me a well-rounded perspective on software development, from rapid prototyping to maintaining large-scale production systems.

In my free time, I channel my interest in public policy into personal projects focused on government transparency. I believe that accessible, well-designed tools can help citizens make sense of complex data and hold institutions accountable.
