CS @ UT Austin · Building agent infrastructure

I'm a CS student at UT Austin and incoming SWE intern at Nominal. I started coding at 12 with Minecraft plugins and have been hooked ever since.

If you're into agentic engineering, let's talk:


Currently

Joining Nominal for Summer 2026. Nominal is a Sequoia and Founders Fund-backed hardware testing and observability platform used by aerospace and hardware teams to analyze telemetry data from rockets, satellites, and other complex systems.

Running growth and sponsorship strategy for Texas ACM, UT Austin's largest computer science organization. As head of sales, 2.5x'd yearly sponsorship revenue and raised a total of $45,000 from corporate partners. Managing outreach to companies, organizing events that connect students with industry, and scaling the org's reach across campus.

Projects

Building enterprise tooling for agentic code ownership — helping teams manage, review, and govern the code that AI agents produce at scale. We're solving the gap between AI-generated code and production-grade software accountability.

A viral quiz modeled after the Rice Purity Test that measures how deep you are in the AI-assisted coding world. 100 questions covering Ralph loops, Claude API spending, and AI Twitter addiction. Anonymous aggregate analytics show how you compare to other respondents. Built with Next.js and DynamoDB.

Built a piano tiles-style rhythm game controlled by physical wands in 24 hours at HackTX Fall 2025. Players wave wands to hit notes in time with music, using real-time motion tracking. Won first place. Built entirely with Cursor.

Built The Beat Box at HackTX Spring 2025 — a 3D-printed physical device that turns hand gestures into music. We designed and printed the enclosure, wired up sensors, and wrote the firmware to translate motion into MIDI beats in real time. The twist: it moderately tazes users that don't play the notes right.
