I am a cloud evangelist and engineer driven by the passion to empower individuals in storing, managing, protecting, and deriving insights from their valuable data. Throughout my journey, problem-solving has been an innate desire, and I recognize the pivotal role of technology in addressing everyday challenges faced by humanity, dating back from the invention of the wheel to the latest AI breakthroughs by open.ai. This profound inclination to contribute to technological progress ignited my interest in engineering at an early stage, leading me to pursue a robust undergraduate degree in Information Science and Engineering. During my undergraduate tenure, I actively immersed myself in diverse projects and competitions, establishing a solid foundation in Information Science. Additionally, I gained invaluable experience as a Product Specialist and Solution Engineer, contributing to esteemed organizations such as Dell Technologies, a multinational corporation, and Hevo Data, a dynamic data engineering startup.

I am now thrilled to embark on my next academic journey as a master's candidate at Northwestern University. The renowned MSIT program's comprehensive curriculum and cutting-edge resources present an exciting opportunity to further develop my expertise, solve complex challenges, and drive innovation in the technology landscape. I eagerly anticipate engaging with world-class faculty and collaborating with fellow students in this dynamic learning environment. My goal is to shape a technology-driven future that empowers individuals and organizations alike, making a meaningful impact on the ever-evolving world of data management and cloud technologies.
