About

Hello there! 👋
I’m a Senior Software Engineer with experience at TikTok, Apple, and Amazon, passionate about mentoring engineers at all stages of their careers. I specialize in technical career coaching, interview prep for FAANG+ companies, and providing guidance on immigration and financial planning. Whether you're navigating H1B, H4, EB2, EB1A, OPT, Day 1 CPT, or need advice on 401Ks, Roth IRAs, or options/futures trading, I’ve got you covered.

I offer tailored mentorship to help you land your next job, level up in your career, or break through career stagnation. I also assist with tackling coding challenges, algorithms, system design, and behavioral questions, along with providing expert advice on U.S. immigration processes and financial strategies.
