I'm a frontend intern at Verkada, a physical security company in the Bay Area. I have experience with TypeScript, React, Redux, Rails, and PostgreSQL among other technologies. I'm a CS major at Columbia University originally from La Cañada Flintridge, CA. I like working with impactful people on impactful things.
