Background

I graduated from Colorado State University with a degree in Computer Science, specializing in Human-Centered Computing, and holding a certificate in Design Thinking. Throughout my academic journey, I cultivated a passion for crafting software that is both intuitive and accessible to all users. I am deeply interested in the intersection of technology and design, and I am committed to leveraging innovative solutions to enhance the lives of others. As a graduate, I am eager to apply my skills and knowledge to make a positive impact in the field of software development.


Just because I'm a computer science student doesn't mean I lack a passion for engineering. I'm deeply involved in various engineering projects and enjoy the tactile experience of working with my hands. One of my primary undertakings involves modifying my 3D printer, where I've implemented Klipper, a new G-code system.
