I build software that solves real problems.

• I have worked across Human-Computer Interaction, networks, and education-focused robotics research since 2023.
• My HCI work has been with Prof. John Magee (former Chair of Computer Science, now Provost of Clark University).
• My networks research has been with Prof. Olufemi Odgebile (networks professor at Clark).
• My Lego robotics research has been with Prof. Lewis Tseng (now at UMass Lowell, formerly at Clark University).
• I am building an LLM from scratch with Prof. Gary Holness (Chair of Computer Science at Clark).
• At HCII 2024 in Washington, DC, I led the project and presented with my co-authors.
• I am first author and project lead for our ISAM 2025 submission.

• I began as a TA for CSCI 124 Honors (Intro to Computing), then supported Algorithms, and later Data Structures.
• Teaching has been one of the most important parts of my growth as an engineer and communicator.
• In Summer 2025, I interned at Wayfair and shipped production backend tooling in C# on Kubernetes.

• First Year Representative of Dana Hall (Student Council): I advocated for renewal priorities in the freshman dorms and pushed improvements on behalf of first-year students.
• First Year Outreach Chair, Black Student Union: I organized outreach and helped lead one of the most attended events of the year.
• Secretary, C4 (Clark Competitive Computing Club): I helped lead programs where we taught kids programming with robots and planned two school hackathons.

I co-founded Clark University's first makerspace (Lux Lab), helped build operational workflows for equipment and safety, and supported student communities through workshops and hackathons.

Research taught me that progress is rarely linear. Most meaningful results came from iteration, honest feedback, and collaboration with people who challenged my assumptions.

Teaching made that even clearer. The idea that "the best way to learn is to teach" has shaped how I work. Helping students understand hard concepts has made me a better engineer and communicator.

Community has been the constant through everything I do. When people trust each other and build together, better ideas emerge and better work follows. That belief is behind my technical work, leadership, and long-term goals.

Outside software, I create interviews and stories through video, writing, and photography.
