I'm a Computer Science graduate from St. Cloud State University (2025) with a minor in Psychology. Today I work full time as a Cloud Infrastructure and Data Engineer at Ameriprise Financial — designing and operating cloud platforms, data pipelines, and the services that sit behind them. My day-to-day blends AWS infrastructure, data engineering, and backend work with clear communication across teams.

Along the way I've taught and mentored as a TA, shipped projects at internships and hackathons, and contributed to open source — experiences that still shape how I explain complex ideas and collaborate. I keep chasing new tools and patterns, and I care about building systems that stay understandable as they grow.
