About

Here is a little info about me

I'm a Software Engineer and I love making the world a more efficient and smooth-operating place to live and I'm currently looking for an opportunity to share my skills and perspective with an organization that will value them. Whether it's building front-end components to heighten user experience, managing back-end requests to maximize efficiency, or leveraging machine-learning and Large Language Models to maximize voter representation (see DirectRep project in resume), I can't wait to talk about how my abilities could align with your organizations needs.

Please don't hesitate to drop me a line and let's discuss!
I look forward to speaking together.

Projects

DirectRep

DirectRep is an app that aims to increase representation of citizens of the US by allowing them to find their elected officials and write them letters on a given topic and leveraging a Large Language Model to generate the body text.

Portfolio Site

This is where you are now! Working on this portfolio site was a lot of fun and a huge learning experience. I really enjoyed learning Tailwind CSS and using TypeScript for the first time.

Ruby on Rails Blog

This is a simple CRUD app I build over the weekend using the Ruby on Rails framework. It was a fun and challenging experience and I hope to build it out further in the future. Learning how RoR handles form validation and basic authentication was very interesting.
