About me

Hi, I’m a Senior Software Engineer at LinkedIn working on Ads APIs and backend in California.

I love road trips, camping and playing foosball. This summer I did a cross county road trip. This website is a collection of things I’ve been up to in the past, and I eventually want to make this a blog about the places I’ve visited and the things I’ve learnt while traveling.

Extremely excited to be a volunteer with the National Park Service. I'll now be at the Golden Gate Welcome Center on most weekends, talking about the Golden Gate and Presidio. Will also be answering questions from visitors about the area, helping them plan their trip 🌉🏞️ What made me wanna do this?

When I left the Google Travel team and joined LinkedIn, I began to look for ways to continue working on travel. In July, I drove cross country with my friends visiting National Parks. One of the trip highlights was attending talks by NPS rangers and volunteers, going on guided hikes, night sky events and walking tours. We've learned a lot more about National Parks from rangers than we could have ever learnt on our own.

If you are visiting San Francisco, come visit us and learn more about our golden state, at one of our visitor centers.

Thank you @nationalparkservice for this opportunity.

Shizen Vegan Sushi Bar and Izakaya, a Michelin star restaurant was worth the 3 hour wait for their mouth watering sushis. 1 of the 6 identical sushis in surprise ending is really spicy, and the one who gets the spicy peice, gets to do the sake shot from the plate. Their proud peacock and hidden agenda were some of my other favourites 🍙🍣🍶 #sushi #michelinstar #food #vegan #sake #sanfrancisco #california #foodporn

Camping at this lush rainforest in Washington. Olympic National Park is a UNESCO designated International Biosphere Reserve. Great hikes, falls and lake with views of Victoria island in Canada on clear days. And as with all National Parks, attended an incredible talk here by a very friendly park ranger. #camping #nps #nationalpark #roadtrip #olympicnationalpark #hiking #washington

Sunset at Joshua Tree National Park today. The desert is not deserted. Saw road runners and coyotes, kangaroo rats and a wide variety of bees and insects while learning about them from the friendly rangers. #nofilters #joshuatree #sunset #california #nationalpark #nps #pixel3

A full day of getting dropped and tossed around in the class 4 rapids of the whitewaters in the American River. This was the richest gold mining areas during the California gold rush of the 1850s.
