About Me
Get to know me better
I'm a Computer Science student at Georgia State University with a 3.8 GPA, based in Atlanta, GA. I've completed software engineering internships at Signify, Crescent Technology, and IBM — building everything from cloud migrations and CI/CD pipelines to RAG-powered AI systems and production web apps.
What I build: Full-stack applications with Next.js, TypeScript, Supabase, and PostgreSQL. I've shipped food delivery platforms, finance trackers, and employee management systems — deployed to Vercel and AWS with real users.
Beyond the stack: I'm comfortable across the pipeline — Docker, Kubernetes, Terraform, Jenkins, and observability with Grafana and Prometheus. I also contribute to open source with 13+ pull requests across 10+ repositories.
