What I'm looking for

I am looking for a dynamic work environment that fosters innovation and collaboration, where I can contribute to impactful projects and grow my technical skills.

I am a dedicated software engineer with a Master of Science in Information Technology from the University of Cincinnati, where I am honing my skills in advanced algorithms and infrastructure sustainability. My experience spans various roles, including a Software Engineer Intern at N.E.R.D.S, where I built secure backend services for a Financial Aid Platform, ensuring high availability and compliance with industry standards.

Previously, I worked as an Associate Software Engineer at Accenture, where I architected modular microservices that significantly improved customer onboarding processes. My technical expertise includes a strong command of programming languages such as Python, GoLang, and Node.js, as well as frameworks like Django and Express.js. I am passionate about leveraging technology to solve complex problems and enhance user experiences.
