To quote a colleague, I am a "true software engineer, through and through." I have a passion for building pixel perfect UI's and accessible inclusive user experiences. I'm particularly interested in designing scalable systems, strong foundational code, solving process bottlenecks, and collaborative teamwork that really makes the dream work!
I’m a curious problem solver with a passion for learning languages (both human and computer). To me, software engineering lives at the intersection of language, communication, and solving real-world problems. That’s what makes it endlessly fascinating, especially in the context of education technology. I’m passionate about equitable education and eager to contribute to a company that’s actively addressing this challenge. With new tools emerging daily and so much still to explore, I feel like I’ve tapped into a deep well of discovery since embarking on my software engineering journey and I’m genuinely loving the experience.
Throughout my life, I’ve often been described as thoughtful, patient, personable, efficient, clever, and genuinely enjoyable to work with. Outside of work, you’ll usually find me learning a new language (French, Spanish, Italian, German, or Japanese), playing drums, painting, watching movies, cooking/baking, or spending precious time with my precious loved ones.
