🎓 About Me

Former legislative aide turned software engineer. After years as a hobbyist, I took the leap in 2022 and pursued a Master of Science in Computer Science at Northeastern University. My primary interests are in Mobile Application Development, Web Development, and Computer Graphics.

With graduation fast approaching, I am now seeking a full-time software engineering role!

🔭 Current Projects

  • Founder of Pledger, where we aim to provide a platform for secure cryptocurrency donations to non-profits.
  • Developing a video effects processor for cameras/video cameras and live streaming.
  • Research and developing an algorithm for motion detection on video cameras.

Mobile App Development

I specialize in and greatly enjoy mobile application development. I have built many different applications and even published a simple timer application. Additionally, I served as a TA at Northeastern University and helped roll out the mobile application development course at the Portland campus. In that role, I developed a number of tutorials and demo applications.

Web Development

I am highly experienced in JavaScript and working with a MERN stack. Although I am experienced with CSS, I really enjoy using Tailwind CSS. I have built a student dashboard for a local non-profit via the MERN stack, my own personal site, and Pledger.

Data Science & Machine Learning Libraries

As a student, these tools have been invaluable to me for their ability to handle large datasets, perform complex numerical computations, and facilitate the development and implementation of machine learning algorithms.

Cybersecurity Tools

Security has become one of my key focus areas. After excelling in an information assurance class, I have been diligently studying to obtain certifications like CompTIA Security+ and actively honing my skills through hands-on experience with advanced tools such as Metasploit, Wireshark, Burp Suite, Nmap, and Kali Linux.

Game Development

This is more of an interest, but I have built some basic games in both Unreal and Unity and am learning about 3D modeling with Blender.
