I am a software engineering professional and technical leader with over 15 years of industry experience building enterprise software applications. I hold a Post Graduate Program certification in Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning from the University of Texas at Austin, AWS Certified Developer – Associate and AWS Certified Solutions Architect – Associate certifications, and an Oracle Database SQL certification. My professional experience includes Java, Python, Spring Boot, REST APIs, databases, AWS cloud, DevOps, software testing, and AI-assisted software development.

I also have teaching and tutoring experience working with high school and bachelor's degree students. I have conducted private one-on-one tutoring and small group sessions (2–5 students) in students' homes, libraries, and online. I have taught AI & Machine Learning, Computer Science, AI Driven Development using Claude Code and AWS KIRO, Programming, Coding, Mathematics and Finance, adapting each lesson to the student's learning style and goals. My approach focuses on simplifying complex concepts, building strong fundamentals, and reinforcing learning through hands-on practice and real-world examples.

What sets me apart is that I teach beyond the textbook. I share the practical knowledge and best practices I have gained throughout my software engineering career so students understand how concepts are applied in the real world. Whether a student is preparing for AP Computer Science, college coursework, technical interviews, or a software engineering career, I help them develop problem-solving skills, write clean code, build meaningful projects, and understand what employers look for. My goal is to help every student gain confidence, excel academically, and develop skills that will benefit them throughout their education and future career.

Approved Subjects

AWS

AWS

I am an AWS Certified Developer Associate who has been building cloud based applications using several different services by AWS namely EC2, RDS, VPC, EKS, Lambda, S3, IAM, Cloudfront, Route53, DynamoDB, Elastic Cache, Redshift, API Gateway, Cloudwatch, CodeCommit, CodeBuild, CodeDeploy, CodePipeline, CloudFormation. I have been setting up and managing the entire infrastructure for the application we build and I am involved in day to day troubleshooting and building any new products on cloud. I have trained and taught students and my team members on using different AWS services in real world uses cases to teach them how to not just know what the AWS services do but also learn how to use them in building highly scalable, resilient and fault tolerant applications used by millions of users on the internet.
Computer Engineering

Computer Engineering

With a BS degree majoring in Computer Science and over 15 years of professional software engineering experience, I have extensive knowledge of many core areas that overlap with Computer Engineering. My experience includes programming in Java and Python, computer and software architecture, operating system concepts, databases, networking, cloud computing, distributed systems, APIs, and designing and developing large-scale enterprise applications. I have taught and mentored high school and college-level students through both one-on-one and small-group sessions, using practical examples to simplify complex technical concepts. My professional experience enables me to connect academic Computer Engineering concepts with real-world computing systems and software applications while helping students strengthen their programming, problem-solving, and system-level understanding.
Computer Science

Computer Science

With the majors in Computer Science, I am a BS Degree holder with over 15 years of professional software engineering experience and a strong foundation in core computer science principles. I have taught and mentored high school, college, and bachelor's degree students in programming, data structures, algorithms, software engineering, databases, and system design through one-on-one and small-group sessions. My industry experience allows me to connect academic concepts with real-world applications, helping students understand not only the theory but also how computer science is used in professional software development. I focus on building strong problem-solving skills, improving coding ability, and preparing students for academic success, internships, and careers in technology.
Data Analysis

Data Analysis

With over 15 years of professional technology experience and a Post Graduate Program in Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning from The University of Texas at Austin, I have a strong background in working with data and transforming it into meaningful information. My experience includes Python, SQL, data cleaning, data preprocessing, exploratory data analysis, database querying, data interpretation, and working with relational and NoSQL databases including Oracle, MySQL, PostgreSQL, and MongoDB. I have also worked with enterprise data technologies and data-driven software applications throughout my professional career. I can help students learn how to explore, analyze, and interpret data, write effective SQL queries, and use Python-based approaches for analysis. My teaching approach combines fundamental concepts with practical examples and hands-on problem solving so students understand not only how to perform an analysis, but also how to interpret and communicate the results.
Data Science

Data Science

I completed a Post Graduate Program in Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning from The University of Texas at Austin and have over 15 years of professional software engineering and technology experience. My background includes Python, data preprocessing, exploratory data analysis, supervised and unsupervised learning, regression, classification, feature engineering, model evaluation, and practical machine learning applications. I have worked with technologies and tools including Python, SQL, Scikit-learn, XGBoost, MLflow, databases, and data-driven application development. I can help students understand both the theoretical foundations of Data Science and how to apply them through hands-on exercises and real-world projects. My teaching approach focuses on breaking complex concepts into understandable steps while developing the practical problem-solving skills needed for academic coursework and real-world Data Science applications.
Data Structures

Data Structures

With a BS degree majoring in Computer Science and over 15 years of professional software engineering experience, I have a strong academic and practical foundation in data structures and algorithms. I have extensive experience with arrays, linked lists, stacks, queues, hash tables, trees, graphs, heaps, recursion, searching, sorting, and algorithmic problem solving using Java and Python. I have solved numerous LeetCode-style data structures and algorithms problems and, as an experienced technical leader, have also conducted technical interviews and evaluated candidates using similar coding and problem-solving questions. I have taught and mentored students through one-on-one and small-group sessions, helping them understand data structure selection, implementation, and time and space complexity. My approach combines fundamentals with hands-on coding and interview-style problem solving to prepare students for computer science coursework, coding assessments, internships, and technical interviews.
Machine Learning/ AI

Machine Learning/ AI

I completed a Post Graduate Program in Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning from The University of Texas at Austin, where I developed a strong foundation in machine learning, artificial intelligence, data analysis, and practical applications of AI.
