• Hello!

    I'm pursuing a B.S in Computer Science at UC Santa Cruz, where I'm passionate about using technology to solve real-world problems. I recently worked as a Software Engineering Intern at Medtronic, where I developed a simulation for an insulin-delivery algorithm. I hope to make a positive impact on the prominent global communities of engineers, while narrowing the gender gap in tech. In my spare time, you can find me hiking, watching a show, or trying out different coffee places. Thank you for visiting my portfolio!

Work Experience

Work Experience

Software Engineering Intern @ Medtronic June 2024 - Aug 2024

Utilized MATLAB to develop FDA-compliant simulation for Guardian Sensor 4 and Synergy CGMs, simulating runs of calibration patterns. Implemented YAML configuration file and Stateflow logic to optimize and improving accuracy of insulin-delivery algorithms. Interpreted data flow and signal logging within Simulink to create successful unit and functionality tests.

Artificial Intelligence Intern @ SECOMIND AI May 2023 - October 2023

Embedded 7500+ closed issues in React JS and stored it in a Pinecone Vector Database. Developed an interactive chatbot using Open AI's LLM and Twilio, which responds to user’s issues with relevant information on issue frequency, bug classification, and potential debugging solutions—streamlining the user's bug resolution process.

Advisor @ Girls Who Code May 2023 - Aug 2024

Co-advising five cohorts, totaling 300 students, in completing a self-paced summer program focused on web development, data science/AI, and cybersecurity. Facilitating weekly advisory meetings and student hours, and offering synchronous support through group activities; technical project feedback; and programming challenges.

Machine Learning Intern @ San Jose State University Aug 2021 - Feb 2022

Collaborated with Professor Gurmeet Naroola and Dell Technologies on research focusing on emerging technologies and their potential for disruption. Applied statistical models and algorithms to identify patterns and make data-driven predictions in various sectors, including healthcare inefficiencies and venture capital investments.

My Work

Projects

Job Application Customizer

Developed an application that leverages Anthropic’s Claude LLM API to tailor user’s application materials to a specific job opening, providing users with an ATS-compliant resume, cover letter, and relevant information on skill-building certifications.

React JS Analytic Bot

Embedded 7500+ closed issues from React JS into a Pinecone Vector Database. Used OpenAI's LLM and Twilio to develop an interactive chatbot that provides information on issue frequency, bug classification, and potential debugging solutions—streamlining user's bug resolution process.

College Task Manager

Co-created a task manager that allows college applicants to receive career suggestions through personalized quizzes; create a college list; and receive feedback on personal statement and supplemental essays.

Inventory Forecast

Created advanced models for sales forecasting: AdaBoost, an ensemble method that combines multiple weak learners to improve prediction accuracy, and LSTM, a type of recurrent neural network adept at modeling long-term dependencies in time-series data.
