Agents

I am currently based in Dallas and San Francisco. I am still trying to find what I am passionate about within the CS space but currently obsessed with financial modeling and autonomous systems. A lot of my projects that I have built are out of trying to fix a problem that I have encountered and chasing that dopamine hit of satisfaction.

As an only child, I spent a lot of time alone and in thought, which has shaped me to appreciate my surroundings and harbor my love for nature. It eventually led to me taking appreciation in patience within growth of things and one day, I aspire to open a ranch within Italy and focus on raising a peaceful life there.

Blaze (YC S24)

April 2026 - PresentSan Francisco Bay Area, CA

Software Engineer Intern - AI Agent Infrastructure

I build AI agents at Blaze that move real money on stablecoin rails.

I was one of the main developers of Blaze's AI CFO, an agent that runs financial operations for businesses, from checking balances to sending cross border transfers.

I build the production TypeScript and Express systems that let agents discover, pay for, and call x402 priced model and data APIs with USDC settlement. That work covers provider routing, payment clients, safety caps, and cost controls, with integrations across Anthropic, Coinbase CDP, DexScreener, and Bazaar, all backed by 125+ tests.

I also designed and shipped the usage accounting layer that traces cost, margin, and ownership across every provider call an agent makes.

UT Southwestern - Tsai Lab

January 2026 - PresentDallas, TX

AI / Machine Learning Research Intern

I architect machine learning systems for autism-related behavioral phenotyping in controlled social interaction experiments. The work focuses on converting raw behavioral data into measurable interaction signatures, delivering 88%+ accuracy across 150+ experimental trials, and building a high-throughput behavioral intelligence pipeline that reduced preprocessing time by 76%+ through automated annotation, feature extraction, and downstream analysis.

Dell Technologies Inc.

May 2025 - August 2025Richardson, TX

Software Engineer Intern - Cloud Infrastructure

I built cloud-native backend services and infrastructure tooling across distributed systems at Dell, working in Go and Python while integrating Kafka and MQTT to improve event processing throughput by 40%. I containerized services with Docker and Kubernetes, reduced deployment cycles from hours to minutes, and implemented Vault, Prometheus, Jaeger, and Fluentd across 10+ distributed services to improve secrets management, observability, trace depth, triage speed, and production reliability visibility.

Manochetana

May 2024 - August 2025United States & India

Accessibility Infrastructure & Digital Operations

I built and improved digital infrastructure for accessibility-focused fundraising and outreach across the United States and India. I helped scale monthly traffic from roughly 800 to 12,500+ visitors, redesigned donor onboarding flows that increased conversion rates by 3.4x, built targeted outreach systems that expanded program visibility to 40,000+ families, and streamlined recurring fundraising operations so campaign execution moved about 55% faster.

Nova

August 2023 - May 2025Richardson, TX

Hardware & Software Engineer

I worked across autonomy, perception, and data infrastructure for Nova, UT Dallas's applied autonomous driving project. I engineered a multimodal pipeline processing 1.2M+ LiDAR, vision, and GPS frames per week, reduced model training time by 47%, and built a LiDAR-camera route-risk model that improved hazard precision by 38% while reducing false positives by 52%.

The University of Texas at Dallas

Computer Science: Data Science Track, & Minor in Finance.

I am currently studying Computer Science at UTD. It might not be the most social or prestigious school but I have met some brilliant people here that have pushed me deeper into the field of computer science.

I really love everything but country music, but my recent obsession is listening to a lot of jazz with a mix of bossa nova, both European and Brazilian style.

Please check out my Spotify and if you have any music recommendations, I am always here to give it a listen :)

  • No Longer Human by Osamu Dazai
  • White Nights by Fyodor Dostoevsky
  • Big Nate Comics

I love reading anything that intrigues me.

UT Southwestern - Tsai Lab

AI / Machine Learning Research Intern

Architected a machine learning model for autism-related behavioral phenotyping, delivering 88%+ accuracy across 150+ experimental trials by identifying social interaction signatures in controlled behavioral settings.

Built a high-throughput behavioral intelligence pipeline that cut preprocessing time by 76%+ and saved substantial researcher time by automating annotation, feature extraction, and downstream experimental analysis.

Machine Learning Publication

Currently in the process of publishing some research on Machine Learning.

Volleyball

I started this sport in freshman year of college and met some of the coolest people that have changed my life and caused me to become more introspective of who I am. I play outside position.

Tennis

The first sport that intrigued me and taught me a lot about who I am off the court. I enjoy watching this sport now and will time to time have a hit.

Cooking

I love to experiment with my food and cook for many people. It satisfies me when I see someone have that nod of approval when eating one of my dishes :)))

Music

I spend 80 percent of my day listening to some form of music, whether classical or jazz or indie. It has shaped me to who I am.

Modeling

I modeled for a bit under this NYC agency and it was such a unique experience. I plan on doing it again later.

Projects

currently my writings are on substack
