I’m a professional namer at Google, where I’ve had the honor of being part of several marketing teams since 2013 and attending an executive training at Wharton (here are my notes).
I earned an engineering degree from Stanford University’s Mechanical Engineering department. I also completed the premed curriculum because, before Google recruited me, I planned to follow my parents’ path and become a doctor. I graduated with honors and was invited to join Tau Beta Pi (in my third year, a year ahead of most invitees) and Phi Beta Kappa.
I have always loved creating art, whether with painted lines or written ones.

I studied oil painting as a child, explored graphic design in college, and am now learning 3D modeling and animation with Blender.

If you're curious, I wrote a life plan with more detail. I call it my Archiridion.
