Junior at UNC Chapel Hill working towards a Bachelor of Arts in Computer Science and a Bachelor of Science in Information Science, I have a strong educational foundation. My professional experience includes working as a Front End Developer for The Helping Hand Project, where I created a website showcasing the project design process for the organization and integrated Herotofu for inquiry management. I served as COO for Chapel Thrill Escapes, responsible for the operations of 2 student-made escape rooms and 10 employees. Additionally, I served as a Coding Coach at Codewiz Durham, leading coding camps to enhance skills such as cybersecurity, robotics, and OOP. These roles have honed my skills in software engineering and project leadership.
