they/themapottereClarkson University
Full-stack engineer with a track record of owning complex systems end-to-end, from cloud infrastructure and backend APIs to mobile clients and web frontends. I thrive in high-ownership environments, collaborating with product leaders whether working within a team or driving independently. I care about writing software that's reliable, observable, and maintainable, and about creating environments where the people building it can do their best work.
