I am a recent Computer Science graduate based in the Portland area with a passion for building robust systems and exploring highly visual, interactive technologies. My background blends rigorous academia, elite technical volunteerism, and hands-on hardware management.
- 💼 Currently working: Software Developer for SII Group USA
- 🛠️ Systems & Service: - Computer Action Team (CAT): Former member of PSU’s volunteer-driven IT/Systems Administration force. Gained hands-on experience in cross-platform troubleshooting and large-scale infrastructure management.
- Civil Air Patrol (CAP): Served as a Technical Sergeant, developing leadership skills and a high-discipline approach to complex, mission-critical environments.
- CyberPatriot: Competed in the AFA’s National Youth Cyber Defense Competition, honing skills in network security, system hardening, and rapid-response vulnerability patching.
- 🧠 Currently exploring: The intersection of software and physical systems, specifically working with Unreal Engine, robotics, and OptiTrack motion capture technology.
- 🌱 Always learning: Prepping for technical challenges using TypeScript and exploring creative AI tools for code development.
- ⚡ Fun fact: When I'm not coding, I'm likely attending pop culture conventions, catching local aviation airshows, watching a Robert Eggers film, or hanging out at the arcade.
