I’m a Computer Science senior at UC Davis with deep expertise in building scalable, cloud-native AI systems. As a Software Engineering Intern, I’ve architected containerized, load-balanced pipelines using RAG-based LLMs on Azure and AWS. In my UC Davis research role, I led TinyML and Health-LLM initiatives—delivering a quantized ECG anomaly detector (IEEE ISCAS accepted) and a personalized Health LLM via fault-tolerant, event-driven data pipelines.
