About Me

I have always wanted to learn everything about anything, and I decided I want anything to be the endless space of software engineering. Software engineering has been on my mind since high school - I wanted to be an engineer to solve problems and create new things. In college, I chose to major in mechanical engineering to work on robots. I led a combat robotics team during my 4 years, and found that I enjoyed the software and automation side of robotics. I attended flatiron school where I learned fullstack engineering.

I currently work as a Platform Engineer at Buzzer Media. My current project is to build out a new API that will help companies deliver premium sport entertainment experience. I'm using golang, SNS, lambdas, dynamoDB on AWS, deployed with terraform.
