About
I’m a Computer Science student at Santa Clara University focused on AI security, LLM red teaming, and backend systems. My work sits at the intersection of offensive security, applied machine learning, and production engineering.I’ve built and secured real-world systems end to end — from IAM connectors for Entra ID and Salesforce using least-privilege JWT architectures, to low-latency voice filtering ML models deployed in real-time environments. In parallel, I’ve conducted offensive security research and exploit development, producing reproducible PoCs that uncovered high-impact vulnerabilities affecting tens of thousands of users and working directly with security teams on remediation.My primary interest is AI security. I’ve ranked Top-20 twice in global Gray Swan AI Red Teaming competitions, designing multi-step LLM jailbreaks and adversarial evaluation techniques that expose failure modes in modern model deployments, including prompt injection, role confusion, and agent misuse.I’m also an MLT Career Prep Fellow (≈5% acceptance), developing leadership, product judgment, and engineering rigor alongside deep technical work.Open to roles in AI security, LLM red teaming, backend or in
