About Me

I am a recent grad from MIT where I studied computer science and physics. I just moved out to San Francisco.

I am working as a software engineer at a start-up working to make research tools for biologists called Benchling.

I also founded a company that sells iPhone battery cases with swappable batteries so that you never need to plug in your phone called CoBattery.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

When I travel, I want to meet locals and understand the culture.
