Information About Me
As a Cal Poly San Luis Obispo graduate with a bachelor's in Computer Engineering, I am fully committed to a philosophy of lifelong learning by doing.
What began as a childhood curiosity—building computers and taking apart consumer electronics—has evolved into a mission to create impactful hardware and software solutions that innovate and improve the lives of people globally.
My technical expertise spans a wide range of programming languages and technologies, including computer networking and security, embedded systems, and full-stack web and mobile development.
I'm always exploring new technologies and tackling side projects that push me to learn more and do better.
Since 2022, I've been running and maintaining a Home Lab NAS server, where I host applications and services for friends and family—combining my passion for tinkering with my drive to make technology accessible and enjoyable in everyday life.
Beyond the technical realm, I bring a blend of leadership and dedication—earning the rank of Eagle Scout with the Boy Scouts of America and supporting the Right to Repair movement to help democratize technology accessibility.
Whether it's engineering robust systems or bridging the gaps in usability, my mission as a computer engineer is to build technologies that resonate with real people and uplift the communities around them.

ProjectsProjects
Here are some of my projects that I've done using a variety of programming languages, software applications, and hardware devices.
Chit Chat Cove
An anonymous, proximity-based social media app where users can interact with the people around them. Developed in React Native utilizing Google Firebase for the backend data storage and authentication, users can create posts, engage with nearby posts with upvotes and comments, and receive push notifications.
Cal Poly BattleBots
A competition-ready battlebot with iPad controls, collaboratively designed and built by Cal Poly CPE, EE, and ME students for an independent client. I was responsible for building the iOS app in Swift and handling the Bluetooth communication between the controller and the battlebot.
Chat
A chat program enables clients to communicate with each other through a TCP connection to a central server. The server receives custom application-level Protocol Data Units (PDUs) from clients and forwards them to their intended recipients.
Digital Multimeter
A digital multimeter assembled on a STM32 Nucleo board in C that uses an Analog to Digital Converter and Fourier Transformation to read DC and AC voltages regardless of its wave and offset.
Function Generator
A function generator programmed in C on a STM32 Nucleo board, utilizing an external Digital to Analog Converter to output a variety of waveforms at varying frequencies and duty cycles.
Packet Trace
Network Packet Trace program that sniffs packets from trace files and outputs the protocol header information for a variety of different types of headers
(Ethernet, ARP, IPv4, TCP, UDP, ICMP)
Round Robin Scheduler
An implementation of a round robin operating system scheduler, cycling through each process for a given period and removing a process from circulation once it has concluded.
Thwac-An-LED
The classic kids game Whac-A-Mole reinvented utilizing SystemVerilog on a Basys 3 board with LEDS and switches!
Portfolio Website
Portfolio Website
A portfolio website I built on HTML, SCSS, and JavaScript highlighting my previous and current projects and skills.
