About
Informatics graduate at Indiana University South Bend, focused on systems design, scalable backends, and building things that hold up. I care about schemas that don't break and APIs that won't surprise.
Previously president of the Center for Innovation & Entrepreneurship at IUSB, member of the Honors Program, and recently selected from 3,000+ applicants for a Stanford Faculty Mentorship Cohort. Selected part of Stanford's Code In Place.
Off-keyboard: tennis, pickleball, salsa and bachata, and hanging out with my dog Teddy.
