Master of Public Health candidate at Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health, focusing on health policy.
Wanting to explore the intersect of tech and something bigger, I found myself drawn to healthcare. A startup with incredible people, I joined the team as the second engineer, taking on the mission of attempting to fix healthcare. Led the Operations team working alongside clinicians to tech empower convenient, continuous care that is twice as good for half the cost.
My team, Transportation Final Mile Routing, tackled optimizing delivery routes of large parcel item to the customer with cost and speed parity to our competitors. I led the development of an application to allow third party carriers we contracted with to enter the number to trucks and their size each day as an input to our routing algorithm, which improved our delivery efficiency.
This summer I was fortunate enough to get a glimpse of the complex world of battery research. As the only software engineer on the team, I was responsible for creating a platform to display data and perform digital experiments. My days were filled with crash courses on crystallography and exploring WebGL.
Entering Boston University with a two year break from academia gave me the freedom and clarity to pursue my interests with no hinderance. Graduated Magna Cum Laude with a computer science and international relations double major and a passion to promote women in tech.
GPA taught me resilience and perseverance. Fundraising on the streets to fund our tsunami relief efforts in Japan required trudging through rejections and finding gratitude in the mundane. Bringing joy to those less fortunate is the reason I continue to volunteer.
I am incredibly grateful to be a part of the IMSA community and my first three years living away from home. This is where I learned to love dance, became involved in leadership development, and fell in love with philosophy. IMSA was the first place to encourage me to embrace my nerdiness.
