Tax × EngineeringFederal compliance, tax technology, and international tax background — currently finishing a Master's in Computer Science at Georgia Tech. I build tools that automate the tax work I used to do by hand.
Big Four Accounting Firm
Moved from pure compliance into building and implementing the tools that compliance teams run on — where the tax-meets-technology instinct actually started.
2 yearsBig Four Accounting Firm
Federal compliance engagements across corporate clients — built the foundation in tax research, technical writing, and the detail-level rigor that carries into everything since.
2 yearsBig Tech Company
Main point of contact for the withholding tax process — coordinate with upstream and downstream stakeholders and data owners to streamline WHT workflows and ensure withholding tax is correctly determined and applied, alongside CFC analysis and cross-border structuring work.
2 years, ongoingBig Tech Company — concurrent with International Tax
Identify workflows across the finance org suited for AI-driven automation, and partner with stakeholders to pilot tools that reduce manual, repetitive tax and finance work.
2 years, ongoingA centralized hub for tracking vendor tax documentation and withholding status — bringing structure to the W-8/W-9 collection, entity classification, and compliance checks that usually live across scattered spreadsheets and email threads.
In progress — repo coming soon →Currently scoping the next build — likely something pulled straight from a real compliance or international tax workflow. Check back soon, or follow along on GitHub.
Follow on GitHub →I spent the first four years of my career at a Big Four firm — starting in federal tax compliance, then moving into tax technology — before going in-house to work on international tax at a large tech company, including serving as the main point of contact for the withholding tax process, coordinating with stakeholders across upstream and downstream data systems to keep it accurate and streamlined. Along the way I became the AI Champion for our finance org, which is where I started noticing how much of the work I was doing by hand could be systematized.
That noticing turned into a decision: I'm now finishing a Master's in Computer Science through Georgia Tech's OMSCS program, aiming to work at the intersection of tax and engineering — as the person who can sit between a compliance team and an engineering team and actually translate between them.
This site is where that in-between work lives.
