About

A bit about me

I'm a Computer Engineering student at San José State University, expected to graduate in May 2029. I'm part of the Software and Computer Engineering Society and the Responsible Computing Club.

I like understanding how things work under the hood — I'd rather build and compile things manually than let an IDE do it for me. Outside of class I'm building iOS apps with SwiftUI and working through systems programming in C and C++.
