London, a city I knew no one in, on a continent in which I’d never left an airport. Palantir , where I’d intern as a forward deployed software engineer — I knew it’d be something different, but not exactly how. These unknowns led to quite a bit of discovery. I was able to reflect on my place in the world and interface with people of all kinds of backgrounds and attitudes on life, careers, and politics. /blog/medium/graduating-me-not-yet/ Mon, 29 Apr 2019 00:07:56 +0000 /blog/medium/graduating-me-not-yet/ Last August I realized I would graduate in May — earlier than expected. I wasn’t mentally prepared; I didn’t know what I wanted to pursue career-wise. So I figured, another internship? I learned a ton this winter while at Lyft. My work was primarily related to data pipelines, and with the mentorship from Dan Fan and Ikramul Haq (and great feedback culture!) I strengthened my ability to evaluate technical design decisions, communicate across teams, and build solid services. /blog/medium/interning-at-redfin/ Fri, 05 Oct 2018 15:01:03 +0000 /blog/medium/interning-at-redfin/ Engaging homeowners without really knowing what it’s like to be one Nine months ago, I got on a call with my future manager to talk about the scope of the team and understand if it’d be a good fit.

Having in the past worked on engineering infrastructure, I was excited to diversify and work on the product side of a company — I wanted the fulfillment of knowing users were directly impacted by my work. /blog/medium/debugging-a-series-of-miscalculations-in-osquery/ Fri, 18 Aug 2017 18:59:37 +0000 /blog/medium/debugging-a-series-of-miscalculations-in-osquery/ Heads up, we’ve moved!

Over the course of the summer I’ve been working on integrating osquery results into our internal asset tracker for automation/validation purposes. It’s been incredibly useful for monitoring various stats, and the SQL interface makes it easy to use.
