Career

I’ve worked across research, infrastructure, and nonprofit education — with a focus on thoughtful systems, clear tooling, and community impact.

Research Software Engineer

Neural Dynamics of Control Lab, Florida International University

I build infrastructure for dataset validation, QA pipelines, and long-term reproducibility across cognitive neuroscience studies. My work includes re-architecting the hallMonitor 2.0 system and contributing to reproducible research practices.

COO & Systems Lead

Chapel Thrill Escapes (Student-Run Nonprofit)

As Chief Operating Officer, I led day-to-day operations and designed ERIC, a custom staff booking and event coordination system. I focused on sustainable processes and thoughtful internal tooling.
