Passionate Software Engineer with a proven track record of driving impactful solutions in the technology sector. As a Software Development Intern at Cruise, I took the lead in seamlessly integrating an automatic audit log system into the Deployment framework for In-Car Experience applications. This innovation enabled real-time tracking of user and system actions, significantly expediting debugging processes and enhancing monitoring capabilities.

During my tenure as a Software Engineer at NVIDIA, I had the privilege of designing and implementing cutting-edge graphics and display driver features for Tegra products on both Linux and Windows platforms. Additionally, I played an instrumental role in the development of a safety-critical Vulkan-based graphics driver for automotive applications, ensuring compliance with industry standards across the entire software development lifecycle.

As an enthusiastic problem-solver and lifelong learner, I am always seeking opportunities to leverage my skills and collaborate on projects that push the boundaries of technology.
