👋 Hi, I'm Tia

Senior studying Computer Science at UC Berkeley

My interests lie at the intersection of technology and various other fields, including healthcare and finance. But more broadly, I'm interested in building socially impactful technology.

This summer, I will be a Software Engineering Intern at Salesforce, where I will be on the cloud and chaos engineering team.
