About

I'm a software engineer and recent CS graduate from Dickinson College with three engineering internships behind me, most recently at AVEVA building platform-wide monitoring infrastructure.

Outside of work I build things I find genuinely interesting — lately a geospatial ML platform for data center siting and an encrypted messaging system that transmits over sound. Away from the keyboard, I'm usually taking photos, traveling, or playing guitar.

Experience

Software Engineer Intern — AVEVA

Philadelphia, PA · May – Aug 2025

Built a platform-wide synthetic monitoring system spanning 29+ microservices in k6, TypeScript, and Kubernetes to surface service degradations faster and reduce on-call escalation load.
Enabled 200+ engineers to self-serve monitoring through JSON configs, OpenTelemetry, and Grafana dashboards, avoiding $12,000+ in annual tooling costs per environment.

Software Engineer Intern — WebstaurantStore

Lititz, PA · May – Aug 2024

Engineered RESTful APIs establishing a single source of truth for warehouse address management across enterprise applications.
Cut stored procedure calls by 98% by optimizing critical shipping and carrier data retrieval with caching strategies.

Software Engineer — Lambgoat

Remote · Oct 2020 – Aug 2023

Grew monthly pageviews from 750K+ to 1M+ by re-architecting the frontend and backend for mobile responsiveness on ASP.NET Core and SQL Server.
Generated $10K+ in first-year sales by leading development of an e-commerce store with PayPal checkout integration.
