About Me

Hey! I'm a full-stack software engineer who's passionate about AI/ML and MedTech. I love the idea of building things that not only push the limits of tech but also make a real difference in people's lives.

Most of my projects are built with tools I'm really comfortable with, like TypeScript, Next.js, Docker, and AWS. I enjoy working on everything from the front-end to the back-end, and I'm always looking for new ways to learn and improve.

When I'm not coding, I enjoy contributing to the developer community through hackathons and workshops, helping others learn and grow in their software development journey.

Experience

Senior Capstone Project

Aug. 2024 – May. 2025

Orlando Health

  • Worked with a small group of developers to create software that helps determine the optimal angle and position of the cannula from a Left Ventricle Assist Device to limit complications after the device is implanted, such as strokes.
  • Set up a Next.js Monorepo utilizing modern frameworks like tRPC, Drizzle, and Zod to maintain type safety, and used Turborepo to speed up dev server start times by 76%.
  • Created a CI/CD pipeline to automatically update and integrate changes to Docker containers hosted using AWS EC2 instances.
  • Set up backend containers for tasks such as using the TotalSegmentator CLI tool to automate the segmentation of a patient's aorta based on their CT scans.
  • Finalist in the UCF Senior Design Showcase event.
