About Me!
I'm a Senior Software Engineer at Microsoft, currently focused on the Azure OpenAI Service—a powerful platform that brings together OpenAI's cutting-edge generative AI models with Azure's enterprise-grade security, compliance, and responsible AI features. In this role, I help create and refine solutions that enable businesses to harness large language models (including GPT-3.5, GPT-4, and ChatGPT) for tasks like text generation, code assistance, and more—all backed by Azure's robust infrastructure.
Before joining the Azure OpenAI team, I contributed to Codespaces, building lightning-fast, cloud-based development environments. Notably, the same computing platform that underpins Codespaces now powers new AI-driven experiences like GitHub Copilot Workspace, a Copilot-native environment in technical preview where developers can brainstorm, plan, build, test, and run code in natural language.
With close to 8 years of engineering experience, I've cultivated a broad skill set spanning Android app development, web technologies (PHP, JavaScript, React.js), and AI. During my master's at Texas A&M, I delved into AI theories, machine learning algorithms, NLP, and neural networks. This expertise equips me to architect scalable solutions using Azure and AWS—while staying agile with a range of programming languages, including C++, C#, Java, Python, Bash, JavaScript, and TypeScript.
My passion lies in crafting services that solve real customer problems, and I find every obstacle—from intricate bugs to large-scale design challenges—an opportunity to learn and grow. I'm deeply committed to mentorship, and I look forward to delivering impactful, AI-driven innovations that empower teams and transform how developers work.
