About Me
I'm a software developer and graduate student pursuing my Master of Science in Computer Science at Georgia Institute of Technology. With a passion for creating innovative solutions, I specialize in building scalable applications that solve real-world problems.
Beyond coding, I'm a soon-to-be father, husband, runner, and avid gamer. I believe in continuous learning and regularly share my thoughts and experiences on my blog, where I write about software development, personal growth, and navigating life's challenges.
Currently based in Salt Lake County with my wife and dog, I'm always looking for opportunities to collaborate on interesting projects and connect with fellow developers.
