What I do

I work on agentic AI at the University of Illinois—thinking about how AI agents can code, reason, and use tools (RAG, MCP, LangChain, Cursor, Claude). I've shipped ML and data pipelines in industry (Google Cloud, Azure, Vertex AI) and built RL agents and game environments in research (Unity, PyTorch). I also founded KidsKoding, an edtech platform that taught coding to 1,000+ students.

What I'm into

Vibe coding with Cursor, Claude Code, and Replit. I enjoy moving fast and iterating with AI. Additionally I like to work on data engineering and Machine Learning with proficiency in tools like Google Cloud Platform, Databricks, and PyTorch. I am also interested in education tech and learning sciences

open to collaborating on ai agents with other UIUC students, alumni, and professors
