Hi, I'm Zara!

At Nearby Computing, I am developing a standalone AI Agent GUI (AG-UI) designed to integrate with the NearbyOne platform. I work with AI engineers to build a modern web interface using React and TypeScript that enables real-time monitoring and control of AI agents. I focus on implementing human-in-the-loop features that allow users to pause agent workflows, inspect and modify orchestration plans, and seamlessly transition between automated and manual control. I also integrate WebSocket-based communication for live agent updates and ensure the interface aligns with the platform’s visual standards. Through this role, I continue to strengthen my skills in frontend development, API integration, and collaborative engineering within a cutting-edge AI infrastructure.

As a front desk assistant at HC Studio, I managed daily client-facing operations, ensuring a welcoming and efficient experience from check-in to service delivery. My responsibilities included scheduling appointments, handling inquiries across multiple communication channels, and maintaining accurate client records. This role strengthened my multitasking abilities, attention to detail, and interpersonal skills while giving me insight into the importance of customer experience in service-oriented environments. I also contributed to the smooth coordination of team activities and studio events, helping foster a supportive and organized workplace.

Conducted research on enzymes regulating hormone homeostasis, including lab work with cell cultures, mice, PCR, and gel electrophoresis. Contributed to insights on vitamin D's effect on FGF23 through the suppression of furin expression. Collaborated with a multidisciplinary team on experimental design, technical execution, and manuscript preparation, strengthening skills in scientific communication and teamwork.
