Currently, I'm the DevOps Engineer for Trooly, a startup in Los Altos. I am also an experienced professional performing musician, with degrees in Clarinet Performance. I can be heard on the Naxos label and have gone on several tours taking me all over the US, Europe and Asia. Aside from music, I love travel, food and skiing.
