About

I'm a budding software engineer who believes technology will be the driving force for much of humanity's current and future progress. Most of my work sits at the intersection of backend systems, modern web apps, and generative AI. I enjoy working with smart, driven people to solve impactful problems.

Outside of software engineering, I like writing, reading fiction, and learning about computer science fundamentals. I play chess, solve Sudoku puzzles, and enjoy discussing science and science-fiction. I'm currently open to freelance contracts, summer internships, and part-time software engineering roles.
