01. Identity
I build systems that work, and teach others to own them.
With an M.S. in Computer Science from Texas State University, my focus lies at the intersection of backend architecture and artificial intelligence. I believe in writing code that is not only robust and scalable, but fundamentally elegant.
As an Instructor of Record, I have led over 500 students and managed 21 Instructional Assistants, turning complex computational theory into accessible practice.
02. Experience
Instructor of Record
Designed weekly instructional sessions for foundational C++ labs. Adapted real-time explanations for mixed-ability audiences and coordinated a team of 21 Instructional Assistants to manage 500+ undergraduate students.
Trainee Software Engineer
Architected event-driven microservices using Node.js and AWS Lambda with SQS, successfully scaling to process 10,000+ daily events. Optimized database performance, reducing CPU load by 35% through Redis caching and AWS RDS Proxy. Containerized deployments using Docker and GitHub Actions, cutting release times by 45%.
03. Selected Work
Neural ROI-Aware Wildlife Video Compression
Designed a Python dual-stream compression pipeline for low-bandwidth ecological data transmission. Engineered a custom KLT optical-flow scheduler, resulting in a 4.41× execution speedup and 38.52× compression ratio.
