03 / About
Ambitious about the future. Grounded in where I came from.
My background spans distributed backend systems, ML tooling, developer products, and startups. I'm most useful where a messy, consequential problem needs both technical depth and clear product judgment. That desire to work on consequential problems is personal.
My parents came to the United States from Latin America with very little. Their decision gave me opportunities they didn't have, and it left me with a simple perspective: building is a privilege, and I want to use it on things that matter.
Have a hard problem worth solving?
