Got tech job offers in Big 4 consulting, financials, and numerous government defense contractors. Published as first-author at a top-tier ACM conference. As a Head Teaching Assistant for CMU's flagship computer security course, I've guided over 120 students to technical and academic success, and I've successfully coached 5 individuals to excel in their software engineering careers (including Ivy League students and graduate students) and make 6+ figures. I've reviewed hundreds of resumes and know the key to building your professional branding. Whether you're looking to break into the tech industry or advance your current skills, I'm here to help you navigate the path to success.
