About Me
I'm a junior Computer Science student at Minerva University driven to turn ideas into impactful software. What started as curiosity about how laptops work has evolved into a passion for full-stack development and machine learning, driving me to build projects that try to tackle real-world challenges.
I'm driven by the idea that small, honest improvements compound—on products, and on people. In any office I bring organized calm, clear writing, genuine curiosity, and the habit of making others faster: I aim to ask good questions, share context, give credit freely, and keep a steady, positive pace. I care about inclusive spaces, thoughtful feedback, and celebrating wins without lowering the bar. My ambition is simple: keep learning, keep helping, and be the teammate you're relieved to see on your project.

Software Engineering Intern
King of the Curve, Saint Louis, MO • Summer 2025Achievements & Responsibilities
- ▶Designed and solely developed the backend infrastructure for a real-time online classroom multiplayer mode, integrating with the senior UI/UX developer's template. This system supports over 8000 user-generated classrooms, enabling synchronous gameplay for 100+ participants per session with sub-10ms latency worldwide. Multiple game formats are supported, including classic 4-choice quizzes, true/false questions, passage-based questions, and a timed elimination mode, all generated from user-uploaded materials. This led to 26% of multiplayer users leveraging invite codes to bring their friends into their classrooms, with 40% of those invited actively participating in at least ten multiplayer games.
Technologies: Flutter, Firebase Cloud Functions, WebSockets - ▶Implemented the backend for a “roadmap” feature that analyzed uploaded classroom material to propose a personalized study plan for each student, helping learners prioritize topics and track progress more effectively. In early testing, roadmap users who indicated their test date showed a 35% higher return rate week-over-week compared to non-roadmap users, indicating strong retention potential.
Technologies: Node.js, Express, Firebase Firestore, REST APIs - ▶Expanded an underused feature called Lecture Notes which transcribed live recordings and added an AI-driven content processing pipeline that summarized user-uploaded files via Flutter, Firebase, and Gemini API, then generated a podcast version using custom AI voices. This led to an increase in user engagement by 40% for existing users. This feature increased average feature usage duration by 15%.
Technologies: Flutter, Firebase Storage, Gemini API, Cloud Functions, Text-to-Speech APIs - ▶Actively contributed to team-wide reviews and bug fixes of legacy code, agile sprint planning sessions, and team bonding exercises.
Technologies: React, Tailwind CSS, Jira, Git, Agile methodologies
