About

Engineer. Athlete. Builder.

I didn't come up through a CS program. I spent years in service jobs — waiting tables, working as a CNA — before I started teaching myself web development out of personal interest. Turns out I had a brain for it. I accelerated through a full-stack engineering program in 2022, graduated at the top of my cohort, and haven't stopped building since.

A few years later I started competing in NPC bikini, stepping on stage for the first time in September 2025. Bodybuilding and software development look nothing alike on the surface, but they run on the same engine: obsessive attention to detail, showing up on days you don't feel like it, and trusting the process even when the results aren't visible yet.

I'm a perfectionist who notices the small things. When I build something, I care about how it feels to use, not just whether it works. That's the kind of developer I am, and it's what I bring to every project I take on.

You've read enough about me. See what I actually build
