I build software, and I like the part before the code most: working out what the problem is and who it’s for.

I'm a Computer Engineering Honors student at Texas A&M, graduating in 2028. Mostly I build software — a multithreaded Wikipedia indexer in C++, a voice agent for airports, tooling for a radar lab — but the part I like best comes before the code: working out what the problem actually is, and who it's for.

This summer I interned with OpenHub at UCLouvain in Belgium, on a team of researchers and students from several countries. Much of it was learning systems I didn't understand yet — radar signal processing, clock sync between sensors, a database that slowed down as it grew — and making them easier for people to inspect. Back at Texas A&M I run the systems and automation behind the Meloy Program's events, which has taught me that real data is always messier than the spec.

I've also been on the other side of the build. As product manager for Aggie Events I helped a 27-person team build a campus events platform, and then stop, when discovery showed the product wasn't the answer. That's the lesson I lean on most: knowing a problem exists isn't the same as knowing what to build.

Outside of that: soccer, volleyball, bouldering, singing, dancing with friends (not well), and eating my way through new cities. This summer that meant Luxembourg, Sweden, Finland, France and the Netherlands. Sweden won.
