About Me

Building digital experiences with heart & code

Full-stack developer passionate about creating responsive, human-centric solutions—from clean UI/UX to secure, server-based functionality.

From Game Maker to Full-Stack Developer

My journey began at age 12 with 3D Game Maker and has evolved into a deep commitment to blending technical precision with thoughtful design. In high school, I took computer science classes from Intro through AP level—and absolutely loved it. That early foundation sparked a passion that's only grown stronger.

During my college summers, I created curriculum and developed all the lessons for coding-focused summer camps, including a Python camp and a Minecraft Education Edition themed camp—all while working as a shift leader at Oberweis Ice Cream. These experiences deepened both my technical skills and my ability to communicate complex concepts clearly.

Over time, I progressed from Java to Python, then into HTML, CSS, and JavaScript—eventually expanding into full-stack development using PHP and SQL. Through strong relationships with my professors, I've secured internships and referrals that have allowed me to work multiple part-time developer roles throughout my junior and senior years. This hands-on experience has built my confidence in frontend and backend development, domain management, content management, and building systems centered on usability and human-focused interaction.
