I am fascinated with the use of technology within the processes and systems of the built environment to improve efficiency and delight in development and user experience. Cities are centers of innovation, culture, and economy with unparalleled vitality; I am interested in how scalable products and efficient services can be deployed in them to maximally respond to the needs of a city’s users. I aspire to deploy my programming skills, design intuition, and entrepreneurial approach to positively impact cities in product, design, and technology roles.
