A SWE with a passion for fullstack and AI

About

I’m a Computer Science student at UCF who loves building full-stack products and experimenting with AI in ways that actually solve problems. I’m currently a Software Engineer Intern at Siemens Energy, where I help build internal tools used by over a thousand engineers and maintain CI/CD pipelines that cut deployment times in half.

Most of my work revolves around modern web technologies—React, Next.js, TypeScript, Tailwind—and AI frameworks like Google ADK, Gemini, and LangChain. I’ve been lucky to pick up a few awards along the way, including Best Overall Hack at KnightHacks 2025 and 2nd Place in the Google ADK Challenge for an AI-powered crisis simulation project.

At UCF, I serve as the Computer Science Technical Chair for SASE, where I plan hands-on workshops on web development, AI, and algorithms, and work to make our chapter a welcoming place for students breaking into tech. Outside of classes and projects, I’m usually teaming up for hackathons, contributing to open-source work, or diving into new ideas at the intersection of AI and large-scale systems.
