I recently graduated from Northeastern University with a B.S. in Computer Science with a concentration in Human-Centered Computing. My greatest passion is creating technology suitable for all users to enhance the quality of life for many. Through several of my experiences, personal projects, and academic courses, I have undergone several processes of understanding human perception and crucial design principles to create the ultimate user experience. I am committed to utilizing technology for the betterment of humanity.
Aside from my passion for technology, I love to cook, dance, and learn new languages (spoken & programming)!
Projects
03 Experience
Feb. 2025 - May 2025
Digital Ready
Computer Science Studio Manager
I instructed a cohort of 15 high school students pursuing STEM in college-level Java and Web Design through hands-on, project-based learning. I designed and continuously refined course materials to align with learning goals, which led to a 30% average increase in student grades. In addition to teaching, I managed classroom operations and collaborated with multiple departments to track student progress, provide individualized support, and foster an inclusive and engaging learning environment.
Jan. 2024 - Jan. 2025
Khoury College of Computer Sciences
Research Assistant in Human-Centered Computing
I conducted in-depth research to generate over 15 innovative strategies aimed at reducing loneliness and fostering a sense of belonging on campus. To guide this work, I developed tailored agendas and led focused discussions that addressed the unique experiences of students within the community. I facilitated a series of participatory design workshops with over 30 target users, using their feedback to drive iterative improvements and refine each idea. Additionally, I designed and administered a comprehensive community-wide survey to assess feelings of loneliness and collect feedback on the proposed solutions. To support user understanding, I created intuitive, accessible prototypes in Figma based on UI/UX design principles, which were then translated into clear, explanatory videos.
Sept. 2022 - Dec. 2022
Hotel Concierge Express
I.T. Support Technician
I installed anti-virus and performance-optimizing software on both desktop and laptop systems, resulting in a 40% increase in overall performance. I also introduced Google Drive to the company and successfully migrated all data across multiple domains without any loss. Additionally, I maintained the company website by regularly updating content and provided daily technical support to over 100 consumers.
June 2022 - Aug. 2022
Agios Pharmaceuticals
Data Science & Science Informatics Intern
I contributed to the development of a company-wide data warehouse to support rapid decision-making. I gained hands-on experience integrating heterogeneous data sources such as SQL Server, Oracle, and RESTful web services, and worked with C# to connect unstructured data to structured systems. My work included designing database schemas, building dashboards, and using tools like Visual Studio and SQL Server Management Studio to support data aggregation and analysis..
