At Oracle, I developed new features and processes to improve our existing developer platform and reduce the amount of time required to deploy code to production. More specifically, this included developing reusable Java libraries that were widely consumed by many other core services as well as onboarding and supporting new clients to our on-prem and cloud clusters using Kubernetes, Spinnaker, Jenkins, Splunk, and New Relic.

I built a web application that allows the user to upload a CSV file and immediately preview the contents as a way to learn React and the Node.js stack.

B.S. in Computer Science

During my time at UT Dallas I learnt most of my key skills that have I have taken through my career such as teamwork and working to tight deadlines. I thouroughly enjoyed my time at university and learnt a lot about a healthy work life balance.
