Tell us about your background Throughout my career, I have dedicated myself to creating tools, products, and technologies that help people effectively utilize their data. My passion lies in developing products that enable users to efficiently and scalably gain maximum value from their data. My journey in understanding the intricacies of data and its potential began at Palantir Technologies, where I began working on search and indexing products. As data volumes grew, I focused my efforts on solving some of Palantir customer’s core problems across the financial and defense verticals before leading customer focused compute teams.

The Parquet website was a bit dated - especialy given it’s heavy usage. It took the opportunity to rebuild the website using Hugo. Check it out and please let me know if you have any feedback!

I built an app to help Wash U Students get around campus! Check out the story / link below. An engineering undergraduate student at Washington University in St. Louis helped create and launch a mobile app that helps students track the campus circulator shuttle. Vinoo Ganesh, a senior majoring in computer science in the School of Engineering & Applied Science, developed the real-time tracking app, titled “WUSTL Circulator.” The app also shows the circulator’s route and stopping points along with a full schedule that students can browse.
