Hi, I'm Hunter š
I'm a software engineer passionate about systems, performance, and writing well-structured code. I recently graduated from Duke with my B.S. and M.S. in Computer Science, and after interning at IMC Trading last summer, I'm joining Optiver this July to work on C/C++ and ultra-low-latency systems. Outside of work, I enjoy singing a cappella, playing guitar, teaching myself foreign languages, and spending more money than I should ranking restaurants on Beli.
