C#
Python

I am a Computer Science student at the University of South Florida graduating in May 2026, with experience in software development, data analysis, machine learning, APIs, and business workflow systems. I recently worked as a Seasonal Associate Developer at Amtrust Financial Company, where I developed and shipped production APIs and web applications, resolved bugs, completed Agile user stories, and contributed ideas for improving internal workflows and user experience. Before and during my CS education, I built strong real-world business and communication experience through my role as an Insurance Underwriter/Policy Specialist at All Insurance Underwriters. In that role, I supported a CRM migration from SharePoint to Microsoft Dynamics 365, cleaned and mapped thousands of records, helped align workflows for 35 users, and worked closely with agents, clients, and internal teams to keep processes moving efficiently. My technical skills include Python, C, C++, C#, COBOL, Angular, Node.js,.NET, Git, APIs, Azure, Dynamics 365 CRM, data analysis, and machine learning. I have also completed projects involving biometric authentication, robot mapping with LiDAR and camera sensor fusion, LLM-based sentiment analysis, stock trend visualization, and social media mining around AI startup trends. I am looking for an entry-level software engineering, application developer, data/ML, QA automation, or technical analyst role where I can contribute to real products, keep improving as a developer, and work with a team that values problem-solving, clean communication, and continuous learning.

I’m a frontend-focused full-stack developer who got into software engineering through a background in design. I started in graphic design and UI work, which gave me a strong foundation in user experience, and then transitioned into building full applications so I could bring ideas to life end-to-end. That combination of design + engineering is a big part of how I approach development today—I care just as much about how something works as how it feels to use. Recently, I built a full-stack eCommerce platform called “Sparkle Bows” as a real-world system, not just a portfolio project. I developed a React frontend and a Node.js/Express backend with MongoDB, and integrated services like Stripe for payments and Shippo for shipping automation. I implemented JWT and OAuth authentication, built product and order management systems, and handled real-world challenges like syncing data across multiple APIs, debugging edge cases, and ensuring reliable user flows from checkout to fulfillment. That experience strengthened my ability to think through systems, not just individual features. I enjoy working on products where I can contribute across the stack—building clean, responsive UIs, integrating APIs, and making sure everything works reliably in production. I’m especially interested in roles where I can collaborate closely with product and design, ship meaningful features, and continue growing in a fast-paced environment. What sets me apart is that I don’t just write code—I think in terms of the full user journey and business impact, and I’m comfortable jumping into problems wherever they exist to get things working end-to-end.

Java Backend Developer | MS in CS

AWS
Java
Python
Spring

Java Backend Engineer with 2.6 years of enterprise experience who genuinely enjoys the moment a hard problem clicks. Not just understanding it — but building something that fixes it, and watching other people benefit from that fix. That loop of learning, building, and seeing real impact is what keeps me going. My foundation is in enterprise backend systems — Spring Boot, Kafka, microservices, the kind of infrastructure where getting it wrong has real consequences. At Cognizant I worked in mobile banking, where I rebuilt a loan approval pipeline that was leaving 10,000+ users waiting four days for a decision. After redesigning it with Kafka and an embedded Python ML service, that dropped to 24 hours. I also cut AWS infrastructure costs by 40% through JVM tuning and batch job optimization — not by scaling up, but by actually diagnosing the problem. Beyond the technical depth, I've stepped into leadership as a Pod Captain — and I find just as much challenge in unblocking a team as I do in debugging a system. We all hit small friction points every day, and I genuinely enjoy turning something I've learned into a tool that removes one of them for good. What excites me most right now is applied AI and GCP — not as trends to follow, but as practical layers that make production systems smarter. I've fine-tuned BERT models, built FastAPI inference services, and integrated ML directly into production pipelines. I recently completed my Master's in Computer Science at Cal State San Bernardino with a 3.9 GPA, which deepened my conviction that the best engineering quietly makes someone's day easier. I'm based in Orlando, open to Tampa Bay opportunities, and at my best when the problem is messy enough that most people would rather avoid it.

Full-stack engineer specializing in backend systems, cloud infrastructure, and QA automation.

Automation
AWS
Data Science
Machine Learning
Python

I started my career as a software engineering intern at Jacobs Engineering Group supporting NASA projects, where I built automation tools and got my first taste of what it means to write code that actually matters. That early experience set the tone for how I approach development: build things that work reliably, automate what can be automated, and always think about the person on the other end. Since then I've worked across the full stack — from writing QA automation suites in Python at a healthcare organization to shipping production web apps with payment integrations, real-time dashboards, and cloud infrastructure at my current role. I've managed AWS deployments, built CI/CD pipelines, consolidated messy internal tooling into clean unified systems, and migrated large datasets without breaking anything in production. Beyond my day-to-day work, my deepest passion is applying machine learning to medical problems. I believe we're at an inflection point where AI has the genuine potential to save lives — catching what clinicians might miss, speeding up diagnoses, and making expert-level analysis accessible everywhere. I've been pursuing this hands-on, most recently building a 3D U-Net deep learning model to detect intracranial aneurysms in brain CT scans as part of the RSNA 2024 Kaggle competition. It's the kind of problem I want to keep solving — where getting it right isn't just good engineering, it actually matters to real patients. I'm a CS grad from UCF, based in Tampa, and always looking for problems worth solving.

Skilled Software Developer with expertise in React, JavaScript, and TypeScript, passionate about designing and implementing engaging web applications, eager to tackle new challenges in a dynamic tech environment.

Hello! Driven by a curiosity-turned-passion for software development, I excel in creating dynamic and intuitive web and mobile applications, fueled by the thrill of transforming ideas into functional, real-world solutions. My journey began with a casual interest in programming, a hobby I explored while teaching physics. Little did I know this interest would soon ignite a passion, leading me to pursue a Computer Science degree. The real turning point in my career came from a simple gesture to help a friend. He was struggling with the tedious task of scoring weightlifting meets. Seeing an opportunity to apply my newfound coding skills, I created a basic program for him. The simplicity and effectiveness of this solution caught the attention of other coaches, and soon, I found myself developing a sophisticated web application now used by hundreds of high schools. This application, now handling everything from team rosters, real-time meet scoring, team schedules, and athlete statistics was more than just a project; it was a solution that made a significant impact in the high school weightlifting community. This experience was the catalyst for founding Gator Lake Web Development. Here, I've embraced diverse projects, each presenting its unique challenges and learning opportunities. My approach to software development is deeply rooted in my experience as an educator – I understand the importance of clarity, user experience, and practicality.
