About Me

With a Master's in Healthcare Administration from USC and software engineering certification from App Academy, I've cultivated a diverse skill set that allows me to see challenges from multiple angles. My journey began in healthcare operations at UCLA Health, where I managed strategic projects, optimized workflows, and coordinated critical programs including COVID-19 screening implementations.

During my time at UCLA Health, I discovered my passion for leveraging technology to improve healthcare processes. This led me to pursue formal training in software engineering, where I've developed expertise in various technologies.

I create solutions that combine healthcare domain knowledge with technical capabilities. My approach to problem-solving is rooted in understanding end-user needs, designing efficient systems, and implementing technology that enhances rather than complicates workflows.
