What I'm looking for

I'm looking to build reliable software and interactive products where I can contribute across the stack, collaborate closely with a team, and keep growing through challenging technical work.

At Captech, I built a full-stack airline booking platform for a simulated consulting client, including flight search, multi-step booking, loyalty functionality, and an integrated AI chatbot.

I developed FastAPI and MySQL backend services alongside responsive, WCAG 2.2-compliant React and TypeScript features. My team recognized me as Most Trusted Advisor for clear communication and reliability with teammates and clients.

I'm also a Computer Science student and Interactive Systems Teaching Assistant at Ohio State, where I help students iterate on game projects using design patterns, Agile practices, and Git. Outside the classroom, I build Unity games, sports-score tools, and city simulations with enemy AI, A* pathfinding, and real-time collision avoidance.
