About Me

Software Engineer at ASR International • AI/ML Full-Stack Developer • Creating innovative solutions at the intersection of technology and creativity

My Story

From an early age, I've been captivated by technology and its endless possibilities. This innate curiosity drove me to constantly explore and understand how things work, eventually leading me to pursue computer science at NC State University. Whether it was tinkering with code or developing new applications, I found myself drawn to the creative and problem-solving aspects of software development.

My professional journey has been marked by diverse experiences that have shaped my expertise. During my time at NC State, I interned at Epic Games while completing my degree, where I had the opportunity to develop plugins for Unreal Engine and optimize game performance. This experience, combined with my work on open-source projects like the Custom Fortune Wheel, has allowed me to contribute to both enterprise-level software and community-driven development.

Currently, I work as a Software Engineer at ASR International, where I'm developing cutting-edge AI applications for predictive maintenance and using reinforcement learning to optimize maintenance scheduling for 2D MAW Marine Corps aviation operations. This work directly impacts real-world military aviation efficiency, combining my passion for artificial intelligence with meaningful applications that enhance operational readiness. Using technologies like Azure, Next.js, and advanced ML frameworks, I'm helping transform how military aviation maintenance is planned and executed through intelligent, data-driven solutions.
