About Me

I'm a Software Engineer at Amazon Web Services (AWS), where I work on the Python SDK team. I graduated from Texas A&M University with a degree in Computer Science. During my time there, I helped lead TAMU SHPE by implementing new software solutions and mentoring committee members.

Outside of work, I enjoy designing and creating useful websites that provide value to users. Whether I'm building a site from scratch or enhancing an existing one, I love the creative process of crafting engaging, interactive experiences.

As the Director of Technical Affairs, I led a team in developing a website that facilitates networking between current members, alumni, and recruiters using the Ruby on Rails framework. I also introduced our first-ever SHPEathon, a hackathon sponsored by Google that provided our members with opportunities to gain experience and develop their technical skills.

Engineering Peer Teacher

As an Engineering Peer Teacher, I collaborated with 8 professors to ensure students were well-prepared to utilize Python in their engineering careers. I developed various methods to communicate high-level concepts to students with little or no programming experience. Having reviewed and graded hundreds of projects, I diversified my approach to different software challenges.
