About

Using technology to solve problems that actually matter to a business.

I am a Florida State University student studying Computer Science, Finance, and Management Information Systems. My interests sit at the intersection of software, intelligent systems, and real-world problem-solving.

Through professional experience in Salesforce development, workflow automation, business intelligence, financial services, and agentic AI, I have learned how to understand organizational needs and translate them into practical technical solutions. I am especially interested in the future of sustainable infrastructure, space systems, assistive technology, and AI-enabled products.

I enjoy exploring how software and engineering can improve the systems people depend on—from business operations and accessible technology to energy, transportation, water conservation, and space exploration. I am continuing to strengthen my technical foundation through coursework in C++, Python, calculus, physics, and Unix.

What I Want to Build

Systems with meaningful real-world impact.

I am especially interested in using software, artificial intelligence, and engineering to create systems with meaningful real-world impact. I am drawn to technologies that strengthen essential infrastructure, expand human capabilities, and help us better understand and care for our world.

Intelligent Software

Building reliable software and AI-enabled systems that transform complex information into useful tools, decisions, and experiences.

Sustainable Infrastructure

Exploring technology for water conservation, intelligent irrigation, renewable-energy distribution, sustainable transportation, and more efficient resource management.

Space and Scientific Systems

Applying software, data analysis, and computational methods to aerospace systems, scientific discovery, and the exploration of space.

Accessible and Assistive Technology

Creating human-centered technologies that improve independence and accessibility, including adaptive devices and intelligent tools for people with disabilities.

Although these fields address different challenges, they share the same foundation: thoughtful engineering, intelligent software, and a commitment to building technology that meaningfully improves people's lives.

Beyond Code

Curiosity Beyond Code

My curiosity extends well beyond technology. I have always been drawn to subjects that explore how people understand, create, and shape the world—from astronomy and history to philosophy, literature, art, and music.

Space and Astronomy

I have been fascinated by space for as long as I can remember. I enjoy learning about astronomy, planetary discovery, aerospace technology, and how innovations developed for space exploration can create meaningful benefits on Earth.

Mathematics and Physics

I love the clarity and creativity involved in mathematics, especially calculus. I am fascinated by how mathematical ideas can describe motion, change, and the physical world, and I am excited to continue studying calculus and physics as I build a stronger foundation for computer science and engineering.

Piano and Classical Music

I enjoy playing piano and learning about classical composers. Music has taught me patience, attention to detail, and the value of developing a skill gradually through consistent practice.

History, Philosophy, and Literature

I enjoy exploring the ideas, stories, and historical developments that have shaped societies. These interests strengthen my curiosity about human behavior, ethics, innovation, and the broader consequences of technological progress.

Movement and the Outdoors

I enjoy staying active through walking, Pilates, tennis, and other forms of movement. Time outdoors helps me recharge and often gives me space to think through new ideas.

Film and Storytelling

I love films that combine imaginative worlds, memorable characters, and meaningful storytelling. Some of my favorites include La La Land, Spider-Man and the Marvel universe, Star Wars, and Harry Potter. I am especially drawn to stories about ambition, creativity, courage, friendship, and finding purpose through life’s challenges and adventures.

Whether I am learning a programming language, studying the night sky, playing piano, or exploring a new idea, I am motivated by the same thing: curiosity about how systems work and how they can be reimagined.

Contact

Let's build what's next.

I'm interested in internship opportunities where I can contribute to meaningful technology, AI, data, automation, or business systems projects while continuing to grow as a technical problem-solver.
