As an Awareness Assistant, I support the IT Office of Global Privacy and Data Strategy (GPDS) at NYU by contributing to global awareness campaigns aimed at enhancing data security and privacy practices across the university. I assist in developing targeted messaging and outreach initiatives that engage the NYU community on critical topics such as data protection and compliance with privacy regulations.

In this role, I collaborate with cross-functional teams, help create communication materials (e.g., presentations, reports, and surveys), and contribute to strategy development for privacy campaigns. Additionally, I support the Enterprise Architecture team by maintaining the application inventory, aligning technology investments with business goals, and assisting with various projects to ensure smooth operations.

As a software engineer intern at Root Access I worked on the following:

1. Implemented a retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) pipelineusing Boundary’s BAMLfor structured semantic search and prompt validation, reducing hallucinations in hardware specification generation and improving output consistency for engineering workflows.

2. Built and deployed a multi-tenant backend with PostgreSQL + Prisma, Redis caching, and Auth0 authentication, deployed on AWS ECS for pilot customers including Mitsubishi and East West Manufacturing.

3. Refactored React frontend with useContext and useMemo, enabling streaming responses and dynamic layouts, which reduced onboarding defects by 40% and response latency by 30%.

4. Automated hardware design synchronization via a containerized MCP serverwith an XML netlist parser and Altium/Nexar API integration, enabling real-time component updates across active projects.

As an Embedded Engineer at Honeywell, I developed and contributed to innovative solutions that enhanced product testing, automation, and system performance. Key achievements include:

1. Developed a C++ emulator based on the LoRaWAN technology stack, addressing critical component shortages and enabling timely testing for a new product.

2. Led the automation of Centralized Fault Display System (CFDS) verification using Python, OpenCV, and Tesseract, improving efficiency in the testing process.

3. Designed and implemented a performance test application for Experion PKS DCS, significantly enhancing stability testing and reliability.

4. Created a Python testbed audit tool using Pandas, improving testing dependency validation and reducing post-release defects.

5. Managed the software testing lifecycle, verifying over 300 defects and achieving a notable reduction in post-release defects.

6. Championed automation initiatives that streamlined processes and reduced manual effort, contributing to improved product reliability.
