What I'm looking for

I am seeking a role that fosters innovation and offers opportunities for growth, collaboration, and impactful projects.

I'm a dedicated software engineer currently working at Lowe's Tech, where I contribute to the modernization of critical systems that enhance supply chain efficiency. My role involves leveraging technologies such as Java, React, and Kafka to optimize application performance and streamline data transfer processes. I take pride in my ability to strengthen CI/CD pipelines and implement security enhancements, ensuring that our deployments are both scalable and secure.

Previously, I interned at Lowe's Tech, where I developed an Audit Logging Service that processed messages from Kafka and stored them in a Postgres database. My academic journey at Virginia Tech has also been enriched by research projects that utilized advanced data visualization techniques and performant algorithms for processing large datasets. I am passionate about applying my skills in real-world scenarios and continuously learning to stay ahead in the tech industry.
