What I'm looking for

I seek software development roles where I can build reliable, user-focused applications, grow technically, and contribute to product impact in collaborative teams.

I am a Computer Science student at the University of Florida with hands-on experience building C++ and Python applications, shipping projects that emphasize reliability, performance, and user experience.

My projects include a C++/SFML desktop app for device ownership tracking with binary serialization and O(1) indexed lookups, and an interactive Python math game with authentication, adaptive difficulty, and crash-free sessions across extensive testing.

I contribute in team and program settings — deploying educational software to engage children, improving data quality in internships, and coordinating events and budgets while maintaining clear communication and operational discipline.
