01 — About

Engineering with curiosity and care.

I study Computer Systems Engineering with a cybersecurity focus in the Ira A. Fulton Schools of Engineering and Barrett, The Honors College. On campus I’m in the Grand Challenges Scholars Program, EPICS, the Polish Student Association, and SnowDevils.

I came up through CREST computer science at Paradise Valley High School. Now I ski, hike, build software, and look for work that mixes systems, security, and people.

02 — Experience

Places I’ve learned by doing.

03 — Selected work

Projects that left the classroom.

EPICS · Indonesia

Crop drying for cassava farmers

With ASU EPICS and Institut Teknologi Bandung, we designed an affordable hybrid-energy dryer so Indonesian farmers can cut cassava spoilage. I served as Budget Lead, Prototyping Co-Lead, and Software Co-Lead — web server, heating control, and sensor data.

The prototype hit 60°C and a 50% water reduction in under two days. On site in Bali, Jakarta, and Bandung we visited drying greenhouses, talked with farmers, and ran an international design review against real climate, not a lab assumption.

Empathy, cultural understanding, and teamwork are not extras. They’re how the engineering actually works.

iOS · Firebase

Waste & inventory tracker

During a Chick-fil-A internship I built a custom iOS app for waste and inventory tracking. It logged daily usage from 5+ devices and stored the data in Firestore so the restaurant could act on it in real time.

The goal was practical: less waste, clearer counts, and a tool people on the floor would actually open.
