I have spent over eight years at the intersection of complex engineering and business strategy, serving as a Technical Program Manager for institutions like Bank of America and UCSF. My background in technical leadership, combined with hands-on experience implementing enterprise systems and AI infrastructure, has given me a deep appreciation for the mechanics of modern technology. Throughout my career, I have specialized in demystifying advanced concepts—ranging from cloud architecture to generative AI—for both cross-functional teams and individual contributors. My goal in tutoring is to bridge the gap between theoretical computer science and the practical execution required in today’s professional landscape.
My teaching method is rooted in "First Principles" thinking, where we break down complex systems into basic components before building back up to a solution. Over the last several years, I have mentored junior project managers and engineers in one-on-one settings and workshops, helping them navigate the steep learning curve of software development life cycles (SDLC) and AI integration. Whether I am helping a student understand the mechanics of Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) or coaching a professional on optimizing technical workflows, I prioritize active problem-solving. I believe the most effective learning happens when a student sees the immediate application of a concept to a real-world project.
I have worked with a diverse range of learners, primarily university students and mid-career professionals looking to pivot into technical management. My sessions are highly interactive, utilizing live technical demonstrations and collaborative project mapping to ensure clarity. Having navigated high-stakes corporate environments, I bring a grounded, patient, and results-oriented perspective to every session. I am dedicated to helping my students master their immediate coursework while building the technical intuition necessary for long-term career success.
