About Me

Software Engineer. Problem Solver. Technology Fanatic.


I'm a backend software engineer based in the Washington, DC area with over 4 years of experience. I specialize in API development, taking legacy systems and rebuilding them into modern, scalable architectures that work well.


I currently work at Accenture Federal Services where I handle APIs and microservices that serve millions of users daily. Not only do I design systems and write code, I work with directly with clients and excel at communicating complex technical concepts to everyone.


When I'm not working, I train combat sports, produce music, and tinker with the latest trends in technology.
