SKILLS
EXPERIENCES
Wavelogix
Sep 2024 - PresentSoftware Engineer developing the dashboard software for the REBEL®
It has been a joy working for the Wavelogix team. We are a small team of impactful engineers, reducing CO2 one concrete cylinder at a time! The company's current objective is to accelerate construction schedules by eliminating the need for cylinder strength testing. I have had the privilege of driving the development of the dashboard: the software for users to gain insight into the state of their concrete.
The dashboard is comprised of an AngularJS frontend, MongoDB as our database, and for the backend, ASP.NET (API) and Azure (serverless compute, software deployment).
Purdue University
Fall 2020 - Fall 2024Bachelor's of Science in Computer Science with a concentration in software engineering
March 8, 2025: I am proud to say that as of this past December, I became a Boiler Alum! I learned so much at Purdue, and after being in industry for nearly 7 months, I've applied what I've learned in my classes many times. Purdue challenged me in ways I never expected, but now I am empowered to conquer every problem I encounter. Boiler Up!
I will be finishing up my degree this Fall with just one class: CS 381, Algorithm Analysis. I know it seems strange to take just one class, but after some personal challenges in Spring 2024, it made a lot of sense to lighten my courseload by dropping the most time-consuming course. This was also a great opportunity for some more work experience before jumping right into industry, and I am happy to say I was able to take advantage!
Dannar
Summer 2024Software Engineer intern, worked alongside a senior software engineer to develop, debug, and maintain the software for Dannar's Mobile Power Station!
Another role included taking on the Dannar Telematics Project, where I used CAN message data in an AWS S3 bucket to decode, query, and visualize the data. Most of my time was spent learning about the IQAN codebase and documenting its functionality via a Gitlab Wiki.
Dannar is an electric vehicle startup whose target market are customers with large-scale operations that require high amounts of power. The Mobile Power Station does this with a minimal carbon footprint without compromising on efficiency or convenience! I have learned so much about the automobile industry and software's important role. Software development at Dannar developed my knowledge of CAN and J1939 message protocols, MATLAB/Simulink and IQAN/QCode programming, AWS services and Python for data analysis, the physics of a high-voltage system, and Git, HTML/Markdown, and finite state machines for documentation purposes.
Fisher Packing
Summer 2023Software consultant, worked alongside a QA specialist to digitize Fisher Packing's inventory and production management.
I was responsible for getting all of Fisher Packing's inventory digitalized. This was needed to streamline quality assurance practices for all of their products. By the end of summer, I developed a GS1-128 barcode decoding extension for Google Sheets, input all inventory and recipe data into an inventory tracking software, and used Google Forms to digitalize the quality assurance logs.
Coaching Wrestling
May 2022 - Feb 2024Assistant Wrestling Coach at Harrison High School.
Heading into Purdue, I was not able to walk on to the wrestling team as I'd hoped. COVID did not make the sport very accessible during that time, so once it became less of a threat, I got involved in the sport again by becoming a volunteer coach. Harrison has one of the best coaching staff's in Indiana, and I am very thankful to be a part of it! Our room was hard-working, motivated, and team-focused, full of an unwavering spirit of family, which was my favorite aspect.
Boiler Awakening
Fall 2021 - Fall 2024Retreatant and Staffer of the Boiler Awakening Retreat hosted by Boiler Catholics
At Boiler Awakening (BA), I was first a retreatant, then a small group leader twice, and on general staff for the second time in Fall 2024. I've been to many Catholic retreats and conferences, had incredible experiences, and deeper understandings of my faith. BA, however, has been the best. Once you go through this retreat, you leave with a better understanding of God's love for you, other's love for you, and what is holding you back from receiving it! This was a very important part of my college experience, which is why it will be my fourth time staffing in Fall 2024!
Ignite
Fall 2020 - Fall 2023Member, Leader, and Coordinator of multiple Ignite groups!
The first ministry I became a part of at Boiler Catholics was Ignite, which is a Catholic small group focused on prayer, scripture, and discipleship. I was a member in an Ignite group my first semester of college, and continued to simultaneously be a member of an Ignite group and lead my own! During the Spring semester of 2023, I was a coordinator of multiple Ignite leaders as well as leading my own. For this role, I would help organize the Ignite retreat, and held biweekly meetings with my assigned leaders to stay updated about their groups and help each other grow spiritually. I've developed important friendships and social skills through this ministry, and it has been a pleasure to be able to make a positive impact on Purdue's campus.
CREATIONS
This Portfolio Website
May 2024Personal Project to showcase my passion and expertise in software engineering, while presenting my personality as whole
Technologies: Good ole HTML/CSS/JS
I started coding this website with a new design during my Spring 2024 semester at Purdue. With my internship starting in June, I've had this month of May to finish up, and really enjoyed the process. This was built using React in JavaScript from create-react-app, of which useState, useEffect, and useRef for the mouse effect and accordion animations were used. React components was just the step up from HTML/JS I needed for better extensibility and cleaner code, with vanilla CSS remaining surprisingly capable and clean.
Update 4/2/2026: I simplified the site quite a bit to something that reflects what a portfolio website actually needs: just some good ole HTML/CSS/JS. I just throw it up into an S3 bucket behind Cloudfront. I would like to learn on-prem IaC technologies in the future and then serve this off of a home server. I of course could do that now, but I think the IaC world is really cool
FinanceFriend
Fall 2023Senior Software Engineer Semester Project
Technologies: Flutter (Dart), Firebase, GoogleMaps API
My team and I created a fully-featured personal finance application, with the goal of learning new technologies while developing a feature-rich application. My contributions to this project were the below features: Account creation, Profile management, Account dashboard, Expense input by location, Database management, Social media posts, Spending goal comments.
MediLingo
October 2023PittChallenge 2023 Hackathon entry
Technologies: TypeScript, React, Next.js, Vite, MongoDB Atlas
My team and I's goal for this website was to educate people about common medical conditions. My contributions to this project are the graph component that represents game progress and multiple React components that my teammates were able to use in making the game. We won the best use of MongoDB Atlas and the Health Literacy category.
JudgeMe
Fall 2022Software Engineering Class Semester Project
Technologies: Django Framework (Python), TailwindCSS, HTML, Javascript, SQLite
For my Software Engineering Class Project at Purdue, my team and I built a web application using the Django framework (Python) and TailwindCSS. Using the Spotify API, users get feedback about their music taste and recommendations for new music. Where we got the name JudgeMe, however, is the comparison feature. We added social media features to allow users to compare their music taste with their friends. My contributions to this project involved creating Django templates for my teammates such as the playlist UI. The rest of my work was solely focused on the comparison features. Using research from Spotify on the link between music taste and personality, I developed an algorithm that uses the genres of your favorite songs to tell you a little about what your music taste says about you!
Lot Tracking Application in Java
April 2022Personal Lot Number Tracking Project
Technologies: Java/JavaFX, Apache API
Using the experience I got in Java from my Object Oriented Programming class, I wanted to solve a problem I was facing at my part-time position at Fisher Packing. We were writing all of the lot numbers of ingredients by hand, so I sped up the process with lot-tracker! This program reads the lot numbers from the recipe template that was used at Fisher Packing, and automatically fills it out from lot numbers that were used previously. No need to rewrite!
Messaging Application
Fall 2020Object Oriented Programming Final Project
Technologies: Java/JavaFX
For this project, my team and I developed a full-stack Java application that allowed a user to send messages in groups. My contributions to this project were primarily the edit and delete functionalities of the messages, which was great training for client-server development.
