I build data platforms and full-stack tools that turn messy, spreadsheet-shaped workflows into something clear and dependable.

01About

Systems thinking, with a person on the other end.

Computer science student at Wentworth Institute of Technology in Boston, working across data architecture, full-stack development, and hands-on technical support. My work usually sits between people and systems: designing relational models, mapping requirements, and shipping the interfaces that make the data usable.

I like the part of the work where requirements stop being abstract: modeling the relationships, naming the fields, deciding what the interface should ask for — and then supporting the people who rely on it. That thread runs from repairing devices at a Cambridge repair shop to designing Dataverse models for institution-wide reporting.
