Hello! I’m a Computer Science student at Western Washington University, set to graduate with a bachelor's degree in Computer Science and a minor in Mathematics this upcoming Spring 2026.
Programming for me began as a hobby during COVID through game development using Unity and C#. I quickly learned to love the challenge of building and problem solving. Through code, I’m continuously learning and believe I can make real-world impacts through the skills I’ve acquired.
My technical toolbox includes proficiency in C, Java, Python, and HTML/CSS, with hands-on experience in both low-level systems programming and high-level application development. I am also adept with industry-standard debugging and version control tools such as Valgrind and Git, making me versatile across the software development lifecycle.
Beyond coding, I am deeply committed to community engagement. Through active volunteering and student-led organizations, I’ve experienced personal growth, growing as a leader and finding purpose working for something beyond myself.
As a first-generation student, I acknowledge the blessing of education I’ve been given and now wish to leverage these newly acquired technical skills to give back and create lasting, meaningful changes.
I am currently seeking Summer 2025 Internships where I can apply what I've learned and continue to grow as a developer. If my background and passion align with your team’s goals, please don’t hesitate to contact me!
