Overview

"Experience is the best teacher, and real-world problems are the most efficient way to apply what you have learned. Embracing new challenges and continuously growing your skillset leads to a life of purpose and impact."

I am passionate about exploring the intersection of technology and the human experience. I strive to build a classroom environment that focused on learning and teaching new ways to apply technical skills to practical, real-world challenges. At the core of my professional and personal pursuits is a commitment to continuously grow, expand my horizons, and make meaningful contributions to my community.
