cs graduate — ai-assisted development & data analyst
Who am I?
A CS graduate who believes innovation is most effective when it is inclusive and for the common good. My time at RIT's NTID and Computer Science House shaped my drive to create environments where everyone feels a genuine sense of belonging and empowerment — whether for one person or for the masses.
Fun Facts
I was born in Venezuela, completed my primary education (grades 1–7) in China, and have navigated my secondary and higher education in the U.S. Living across three continents as a hard-of-hearing individual has given me wide world view.
How I build with AI
I orchestrate multi-agent teams using OpenCode Ensemble — each agent works in an isolated sandboxed worktree so no agent can touch another's code, and every change goes through human review before it's merged. AI accelerates the process, but people stay accountable.
Helping research node-based AI tools for building and adjusting AI pipelines. Testing ComfyUI for visual prototyping and LangGraph for step-by-step agent workflows.
Deployed an e-commerce platform on Railway with TypeScript and PostgreSQL. Used OpenCode to guide LLM agents in building features. Set up CI/CD so Docker containers were verified before each deploy. Built a data dashboard for order summaries, revenue tracking, and inventory and demand overview.
Ran manual smoke tests and wrote automated test cases to ensure high-quality releases. Processed and analyzed image/video quality data for product quality control. Took part in code reviews and worked with cross-functional teams to identify, document, and resolve software issues.
Designed and built UI for a social media mobile app using Flutter for the deaf community. Worked with distributed systems using Google Cloud Platform and Firebase Database. Implemented role-based access using Firestore Security Rules to enforce data isolation.
Built an HTML/CSS web app for visualizing emotion in text. Researched real-time emotion detection in speech using Wav2Vec2 and Whisper models. Deployed Wav2Vec2 on Google Cloud Platform for real-time affective captioning. Collected eye-tracking data for an accessibility study.
Ran statistical analysis on MITRE threat alerts to find security patterns. Helped set up NS-3 simulations for satellite communication and motion modeling. Analyzed satellite motion and communication data using MATLAB and C++.
Helped optimize properties of novel polymers using gradient descent in MATLAB and C++. Helped structure and document the Morpho-Lang compiler project. Put together a research poster for material science researchers.
Collaborator on a small autonomous robot project. Helped with ESP32 firmware and wiring for motor control, helped design and 3D-print a custom chassis, and helped set up a Raspberry Pi server with secure remote connection.
Collaborator on a 4G LTE remote drone for long-distance control. Helped configure reverse SSH and port forwarding for secure access to the remote drone.
Bachelor of Science in Computer Science, Minor: Mathematics GPA: 3.85/4.00
