01
Where I've worked
Three teams.
Real production code.
-
ReliaQuest now
Software Engineer Intern- Engineering on GreyMatter, ReliaQuest's AI-driven security operations platform protecting Fortune 1000 enterprises at SOC scale.
- Shipping production features across detection, automation, and data pipelines.
-
Office of Indiana State Chemist
Web Developer- Architected a full-stack seed laboratory management system from scratch with React (Vite) and PHP — replacing a legacy platform and digitizing purity & germination test workflows for state compliance.
- Reverse-engineered vague legacy data into a normalized relational schema, extracting tables from existing PDFs into a structured, queryable database.
- Built a PHP REST API for test submission, validation, and result storage, wired to dynamic React form flows for lab technicians — cutting manual entry errors and accelerating result reporting.
- Implemented auth + role-based access control, containerized microservices with Docker, and established CI/CD for secure deployment inside restricted government infrastructure.
-
Luna Social
Software Engineer- Led frontend development of a next-gen social app in Swift (MVVM) — 45+ reusable components across 12 modules, now powering all frontend systems.
- Designed a GNN-based matching algorithm analyzing user preference vectors in real time.
- Optimized the Firebase layer for real-time feeds and live chat, cutting API latency by 55%.
- Refactored memory-heavy components — 70% fewer crashes, 5,000+ concurrent users at peak.

About me
I build at the intersection of spatial computing and AI — accessibility tools that guide the visually impaired, AR surgical simulators, and full-stack systems for everyone from startups to state government. Every system is measured, every interface is intentional, and every abstraction earns its place.
