I'm a Senior Software Engineer at The Home Depot and an alumnus from UT Austin making my way in the software development world one line of code at a time. I enjoy PC Gaming, backpacking, and reading in my free time. I'm looking to build my career in application development on both sides of the stack. I'm interested in working with teams that practice Agile Methodologies and use CI/CD. I'm currently doing research on AI and Machine Learning as I continue to build my career. I would like to gain more experience practicing these cutting edge programming techniques because I believe that the tech world moves constantly, and I'd like to be learning from those that are riding the wave.

The people who worked here convinced me to write something on my hands since I wouldn't be able to talk.
My first friend I met while backpacking took this photo of me.
I was shocked at how big this place is in person. The photos do it no justice.
I was wandering around London exploring every street when I came across the BBC.
I hiked up to the top of this mountain with some people I met at my hostel. This ended up being one of my favorite photos.
I ended up in Portugal on a whim, a friend of a friend offered to buy me a ticket here and we spent the weekend exploring.
It's a lot harder to balance on here than you would think!
I had this photo taken after taking some much needed relaxation. I had to climb 551 steps to get to the top.
