Hands-on support
I believe that with persistence, humility, and resourcefulness, anyone can thrive as a software engineer and build a fulfilling career in tech.
My journey began with three internships, including two at Microsoft, while earning my Computer Science degree at the University of Utah. After graduation, I joined Microsoft full-time and quickly advanced to Software Engineer 2 within a year and Senior Software Engineer within two. As a tech lead, I’ve successfully guided projects and contributed to impactful open-source initiatives. My work at Microsoft took me to cities like London, Paris, Buenos Aires, and Stockholm, where I delivered high-impact projects for the company and its partners.
In late 2021, I joined Stripe as a Senior Backend Engineer, focusing on developing payment solutions for Latin American merchants as part of the LATAM team. I later transitioned to the Cost Platform team, building services to estimate and reconcile financial transaction costs. After nearly three years at Stripe, I returned to Microsoft as a Principal Software Engineer to continue driving impactful initiatives and mentoring others.
How I Can Help:
With firsthand experience navigating the journey from intern to Principal Software Engineer, I’m here to help you:
• Break into big tech: Strategize your career path and stand out as a candidate.
• Ace technical interviews: Sharpen your problem-solving skills and build confidence.
• Position for growth: Prepare for top offers and promotions through deliberate skill-building and strategic planning.
Additional Details:
