Software Engineering · AI/ML · Data Engineering

I'm a fourth year Computer Engineering student at the University of Florida graduating in December 2027 with interests in software engineering, artificial intelligence, and machine learning. I'm also pursuing a certificate in AI Fundamentals & Applications to complement my engineering coursework and hands-on experience.

I'm currently looking for opportunities in software engineering and AI/ML where I can continue tackling challenging problems, learning from experienced teams, and building technology with real-world impact.

Let's connect.

Experience

Industry engineering and applied research.

Honeywell

May – Aug 2026

AI/ML Engineering Intern

  • Engineered Python and Databricks pipelines processing 1B+ new telemetry records daily across thousands of devices, completing ingestion, transformation, and analysis within 4 hours.
  • Ingested, normalized, filtered, and feature-engineered 50B+ records across multi-terabyte datasets, transforming raw device telemetry into structured datasets for predictive failure modeling.
  • Developed SQL workflows to extract, join, and validate large-scale modeling datasets, improving data consistency and reproducibility across the ML pipeline.
  • Built Databricks dashboards to analyze device telemetry, model outputs, failure predictions, and confidence metrics, enabling internal evaluation of a predictive capability that did not previously exist.
  • Co-developed the end-to-end data and analytics pipeline within a 2-person engineering team, contributing across data architecture, pipeline development, model evaluation, and analytics.

AltaScient

Jan 2026 – Present

Software Engineering Intern

  • Serve as primary developer of a customer-facing global trade and supply-chain analytics platform, architecting the React frontend, FastAPI backend, data infrastructure, analytics engine, and nearly 100 interactive visualizations.
  • Built Python data pipelines processing 100M+ records across 100+ datasets and hundreds of data sources, covering global trade flows from 2008–present across ~75 HS commodity codes.
  • Automated ingestion, normalization, and analysis workflows to update commodity databases in under 1 hour, reducing processing time by 50% through parallelization, vectorization, Parquet storage, and optimized computation.
  • Designed a precomputation and caching architecture for data-intensive statistical analyses, reducing customer-facing analytics load times from 10+ seconds to under 1 second.
  • Developed AI features including a daily LLM-powered current-events system that identifies, scores, and summarizes industry-relevant events, and a separate 175M-parameter Hugging Face chatbot running client-side to answer questions about platform functionality and data.

UF Machine Learning Research Lab

Aug 2026 – Present

Machine Learning Research Assistant

  • Conducting research evaluating AI models' ability to grade student work across varying rubrics against human graders.
  • Designing and executing experiments to measure grading accuracy, consistency, and agreement between AI models and human evaluators.
  • Analyzing experimental results and contributing to research methodology and co-authoring findings for publication.

UF Machine Learning Research Lab

Jan – Apr 2026

  • Independently developed a full-stack admissions platform using React, FastAPI, and SQLite to support structured evaluation of application materials.
  • Built asynchronous Python PDF ingestion, section detection, and text extraction pipelines to automatically identify and process relevant application sections.
  • Developed a React interface with click-to-grade PDF section viewing, real-time score persistence, and Excel export.
  • Architected FastAPI endpoints, relational data models, and asynchronous processing to manage data and PDF assets.

Boats Group

Jun – Aug 2025

  • Developed an AI-powered boat valuation tool using React, Tailwind, and OpenAI APIs for market estimates, image analysis, and confidence scoring.
  • Standardized metadata and data-decoration attributes to improve analytics consistency and user behavior tracking.
  • Authored documentation to streamline onboarding, environment setup, and deployment across multiple repos.
  • Improved UI/UX and navigation across multiple apps with reusable components and state-aware routing.

Personal Project

Nov 2025 – Present

AI-Powered Shopping Assistant

  • Built a SwiftUI iOS app for grocery lists, multi store item search, and price comparison with best store cart totals.
  • Developed a Python FastAPI scraping service with Playwright to search and normalize products across various retailers.
  • Designed a manager-worker architecture to run store-specific scrapers in parallel and isolate failures.
