About

I’m a Computer Science graduate student at Stevens Institute of Technology with a strong interest in building reliable software systems and improving existing applications. I enjoy taking a problem from requirements to implementation — designing APIs, debugging issues, and refining solutions so they are maintainable and practical for real users. My experience includes developing full-stack and backend applications using Java, Python, and JavaScript, along with working in team environments that follow structured development processes. I’ve built RESTful services, implemented validation and error handling, and worked with databases such as MongoDB and MySQL. I’m particularly interested in roles where software supports real operations — not just prototypes — and where collaboration and clear communication are as important as coding. Through academic and project work, I’ve developed a strong debugging mindset and an ability to learn new tools quickly. I value writing clear, maintainable code and understanding the broader system rather than focusing only on individual components. I’m currently seeking entry-level software engineering opportunities where I can contribute to a team, continue learning, and help deliver dependable solutions in production environments.
