Leveraging software to surpass boundaries and decipher the complex.

About

Class of 2027 B.Sc. in Computer Science at Texas A&M University.

Intrigued by the power of data and algorithms, I spend my time learning about their applications in finance, computational neuroscience, and medical research. I think it's exciting and important work.

Currently, I'm working on a Black-Scholes Model Calculator with a C++ REST-API for the core calculations and a Svelte frontend.

2x SWE intern at a major logistics company working on the platform engineering team, developing skills in building scalable software solutions.

When I'm not at the computer I'm usually training MMA, enjoying mediterranean food, spending time with family.
