Right now I’m at Atlassian as a Software Engineering Intern. I'm working on Editor, which is the rich text editor platform component used across various Atlassian products like Confluence, Jira, and BitBucket.

I’m currently studying Math and Computer Science at the University of Sydney. When I receive my bachelor’s degree at the end of 2025, I will move to SF :)


Past endeavours:

  • Founder @ Stella AI , an EdTech startup that we bootstrapped and successfully sold in 2024.
  • Software Engineer @ various startups from pre-seed to Series A. My most valuable learnings came from my work done here.

    • In my spare time:
  • Helping build a trading firm that my cousin is founding (ex-jane street, smartest person I know)
  • Learning Rust
  • Training in ballet
