About Me

I'm a passionate software engineer with a focus on web development, UI / UX, and accessibility. I graduated from Indiana University Bloomington in 2023 with a Bachelor's of Science in Computer Science and a minor in Game Design. I have a strong foundation in software development and have a keen interest in making digital experiences worth using by everyone and anyone.

I currently work at Eli Lilly. My work includes the initial release of LillyDirect®, which you can see on NBC News(opens in new tab), and various micro-frontends for Lilly websites.

As a 2000s kid, I grew up alongside technological innovation, from the early days of online games to the rise of smartphones. I even had a desktop at 3 years-old, which sparked my curiosity about how tech worked behind the scenes. This led to me to build my own games and websites. Eventually, this led me to pursue a career in software engineering.

I'm also a big fan of building and making things, including LEGO sets, Minecraft worlds, video games, furniture, paintings, meals, and more! Give me something I can build, and I'll be happy.
