A Cliffsnotes on My Life

I am a recent graduate of Georgia Institute of Technology where I recieved my B.S. in Computer Science with a concentration in Information Internetworks and Media. Currently, I am working as a Software Engineer in San Francisco. A few of my hobbies include: reading things with words, listening to podcasts, petting random dogs, and visual art.

I enjoy computer science because I find it to be a hybrid form of art. I use logic to figure out a solution to a problem and I use creativity to choose the best way to implement a solution. I wrote an article discussing why creativity is critical to success as a software developer which made it to the front page of Hacker News and was reposted by a few technical blogs.

Technical Skills and Projects

I currently work on integrating microservices into open source an open source Platform as a Service. Previously I worked at Mailchimp where I migrated an RPC system to gRPC and integrated it with a Django application. I have also worked at Ultimate Software doing devops work in order to ensure high availability of the PCF deployment platform and at The Home Depot where I developed a proof of concept of a single backend system supporting multiple store fronts.

A few of my technical projects

My Angel Sight

System that can identify distracted driving. Uses a convolutional neural network and openCV to identify these drivers. Best hack and sponsor prize winner at HackAuburn 2019.

PoBot

Developed a Facebook Messenger bot that allows a user to discover new poetry. Used NodeJS and Python to build this and hosted it on Heroku.

Audio AD

Developed a Unity application as a proof of concept for an audio centric software and hardware suite to help filmmakers focus on their work without having to micromanage their crew.

iTrans Research

Implemented machine learning algorithms in a Python application to better predict bus arrival and departure times based on data captured in a live MySQL database for Georgia Tech's busing system.

Visual Skills

I have worked for Georgia Tech's communications department where I helped create content for their social media pages. Previously, I worked at Chil & Co., which is a creative agency located in Atlanta and for fourofour.co. Here are some of my photos. To see more of my work, checkout my Instagram.
