Hi! I'm Alexa, a full-stack software engineer with experience at Apple, Microsoft, and YC-backed startups, where I’ve built AI-supported tools, automation systems, and user-facing products. My work includes NLP chatbots, documentation automation, and a browser-based 3D creative editor, shaped by my interest in making intelligent systems more intuitive and responsible.

With a background in Symbolic Systems (Human-Centered AI) from Stanford and leadership experience through she++, I blend engineering, UX, and design thinking. I’m currently exploring roles in ethical AI and full-stack development, with a focus on building technology that augments human capabilities.
