I'm a web developer who is based in San Francisco. I'm a former cryogenics engineering who worked at Stanford's particle accelerator lab during the week and built toy web-apps on weekends. Now, I'm having a blast with full time web development.

Software Engineer @ From September 2015 to Present (2 months) Mountain View, CALSST Mechanical Engineer @ Development and test of cryogenic systems for the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope's 3.2 gigapixel camera. From December 2013 to April 2015 (1 year 5 months) Menlo Park, CAMechanical Engineer @ • Responsible for design, drafting, procurement, and test of particle accelerator systems. • Documented and presented structural/stress analyses based on ASME codes, Roark’s Formulas, and FEA results. Reports ranged from lifting fixtures to process piping. • Developed finite element models of thermal, fluid, and structural systems using ANSYS. • Supported design, fabrication, and 80 K testing of superconducting magnets for CEBAF Large Acceptance Spectrometer. From March 2012 to December 2013 (1 year 10 months) Newport News, VAMechanical Engineering Intern - Free Electron Laser Division @ • Worked with engineers, physicists, and technicians on accelerator R&D projects. • Performed troubleshooting, repair, and upgrades to critical accelerator systems. • Evaluated thermal and structural designs for vacuum applications.
