Hey, I’m Ada!

I’m a software engineer interested in systems that shape how we live, technical and otherwise. I follow problems around and am very much a generalist, with deep software engineering experience and a background in security, AI, education, and law.

I currently work at Google on automations for network infrastructure planning and design. I work on a platform team, spending most of my time on backend, infra, and dev tooling projects, and the rest of my time collaborating with colleagues across the org, writing docs, and wrangling uncooperative coding agents.

Before that, I studied computer science and law at UNSW Sydney. I worked with some fantastic people and groups during this period, including the Open Source Security Team at Google Sydney, the ML researchers at Gradient Institute, and the academics at the UNSW School of Computer Science and Engineering. I decided to go on program leave after finishing the CS degree to go all-in on tech and haven’t looked back.

Welcome to my corner of the internet!
