My studies at Palomar College and WGU have given me a growing foundation in software engineering, systems, and problem solving. I reinforce that learning by building projects across browser extensions, APIs, embedded systems, and graphics. From writing ARM assembly for a Raspberry Pi robot to designing a TypeScript API and testing a Chrome extension in a real browser, I enjoy getting close to a problem, understanding its constraints, and building software that is clear, maintainable, and dependable for the people using it.
How I work
Clear communication
Coursework and self-directed projects have taught me to make my reasoning visible: document decisions and write code that another developer can follow. I bring that habit to collaboration and debugging.
Reliable execution
Building projects from idea through testing has taught me to break work into small, easily manageable steps. I value careful implementation, useful tests, and attention to the details that make software dependable.
Technical troubleshooting
Projects such as a Raspberry Pi leader-follower robot and a WebGL portfolio have made troubleshooting a core part of my learning. I enjoy tracing behavior across hardware, browser APIs, and application code to find the real cause of a problem.
Operational ownership
Personal projects have made me comfortable owning a problem end to end: learning the constraints, choosing an approach, iterating from feedback, and finishing with a working, tested result. I also know when to seek feedback before going further.
Get in touch
I'm looking for software engineering roles where I can keep learning, ship useful software, and work with a team that cares about quality.
