What I'm looking for

I am seeking impactful engineering roles where I can build secure, scalable web and API systems, collaborate with cross-functional teams, and continue growing in integration and privacy-focused development.

I am a software engineer with a B.S. in Computer Science from Tufts University and hands-on experience building web applications, integrations, and privacy-focused tooling. I have delivered backend integrations at Blue Cross Blue Shield of TX, built a mental-health tracking prototype using PHP/JavaScript, and created HIPAA-aware tooling with React, Flask, and SQL.

I excel at collaborating with cross-functional teams—product, marketing, and clinical stakeholders—to translate requirements into reliable, testable solutions. My work emphasizes scalability, security, and user engagement, evidenced by MuleSoft ESB integrations, BDD test suites in Java/Cucumber, and encryption-centric projects using AES-256 and HMAC-SHA256.
