software for climate
Meeting new energy demands with renewable energy, and building the future of weather monitoring.
It started in university when I minored in ecological economics and learned about the full ecological cost of humanity's existence. What stood out to me were the externalities our economies ignore.
My journey as a software engineer began at Accenture's innovation hub in Singapore where I prototyped for the industries that decarbonization has to transform: oil and gas, mining, utilities, agriculture. I came out of it seeing "the art of the possible" for responding to climate change.
Covid sent me on a four year tangent at Kount, where I learned enterprise software engineering while building identity and fraud solutions at scale. I joined as an IC and left as Staff running a team of twelve. The work taught me hard lessons like the importance of regular feedback from real customers and how to charge through compliance to get to the fun stuff!
I stepped away in 2024 to care for my mother who spent her last years fighting cancer. After travelling to emotionally reset, I have clarity on what I want to spend this new chapter of my career on.
Now I'm in San Francisco, looking for the right job.
Leading technical capstone projects and coordinating monthly community events.
Steered the Identity as a Service product from proof-of-concept to production. Joined as first hire on the team, left leading twelve semi-remote engineers.
Sparked new client business across O&G, utilities, mining, agriculture, and transportation.
