Boston, MA

Full-Stack Software Engineer & Cloud Developer (AWS & GCP Certified). Passionate about leveraging technology to build scalable, impactful data-driven applications and cloud solutions.

Currently a Senior Software Engineer at Perk, I build full-stack features and payment integrations with React, Express, and TypeScript for a business travel platform serving thousands of companies worldwide. With a B.S. in Computer Science and a minor in Business Administration, my background spans data management tooling, workflow automation, and cloud-native development across Python, Angular, and modern JavaScript stacks.

Previously at CVS Health, I served as a technical lead on a team of seven engineers, building an in-house Data Job Management solution and internal data marketplace platform that drove several million dollars in annual savings. I also contributed to Salesforce Commerce Cloud integrations at Publicis Sapient and led innovative research projects at the University of South Carolina, including computer vision applications for mosquito research that resulted in published mobile apps. I'm passionate about continuously learning emerging technologies, especially in cloud services, Generative AI, and machine learning workflows.

Outside of coding, I enjoy traveling, skiing, music festivals, and discovering new places and cultures. Always eager to create software that makes a positive difference!
