CIS student at University of Houston blending software engineering with product strategy. I build systems that scale, strategies that ship, and interfaces people actually love.
Hello Hello!! I'm Alisa, a graduating senior studying Computer Information Systems at the University of Houston, where I blend software engineering, business strategy, and systems thinking into everything I build.
My background is genuinely multidisciplinary: I've spent time at Apple (twice), Baker Hughes, GE Appliances, Northrop Grumman, and Black Venture Capital Consortium — across roles spanning software engineering, program management, and product strategy.
I thrive in the intersection of technical depth and strategic clarity, designing systems that are reliable and building roadmaps that actually ship. Outside of tech, I'm a slam poet, multimedia artist, and matcha enthusiast.
Performed geospatial analysis and K-means clustering on large-scale demographic, econometric, and education datasets to identify optimal facility locations across the Chicago metro area. Engineered an interactive heatmap correlating multi-dimensional community factors with site viability scores.
Built a capacity monitoring and alerting system using Python and AWS Lambda to detect throughput saturation and reliability risks from device telemetry. Automated configuration management with S3 and infrastructure-as-code, reducing manual updates and improving network visibility.
