About

As a dedicated computer engineering student at Texas A&M University, I’m passionate about advancing technology and creating innovative solutions. My coursework in electrical engineering and computer science is shaping a solid technical foundation and fueling my drive for problem-solving. During my internship at Drake Plastics, I collaborated with teams to refine data collection, improving cost tracking and resource planning, and I refined my abilities to work in a team oriented environment. Outside of academics, I stay active through basketball, tennis, and violin. I’m eager to take on new challenges and collaborate to make a meaningful impact. Let’s connect and explore opportunities together.
