About
Work
I’m Head of Engineering at Anglera, where we build AI-powered product data infrastructure for e-commerce. I work across technical direction, distributed systems, data pipelines, product engineering, and helping a team ship reliably.
Before Anglera, I spent four years at Optum building authentication systems, migrating more than 500,000 accounts, and bringing early retrieval-augmented generation systems into enterprise workflows.
Background
I grew up in a refugee camp in Nepal and resettled in Saint Paul, Minnesota. I studied International Relations and Computer Science at Stanford and now live in San Francisco.
Outside work
I’m an aspiring pilot and an enthusiastic plane spotter. I watch a lot of soccer, listen to music, tinker with Raspberry Pis, and explore what’s new in LLMs.

This is where I write down things I want to understand more clearly—mostly engineering, AI, work, migration, and life.
