The Developer
I'm a junior Computer Science major at Colorado State University, graduating in Spring 2027. Dean's List, 4.0 GPA last semester.
I build things two ways: fully from scratch when depth matters (like KanaCard and my Environmental Monitor), and with AI tools when the goal is shipping fast. The first proves I know what I'm doing. The second proves I can get things done. Knowing when to use which is half the job.
The Person
When I'm not staring at Xcode, I'm usually out logging miles running. I'm currently training for a 10k! Honestly, grinding through a long run hits exactly the same as trying to figure out a stubborn bug. I've found that you just have to keep pushing until it clicks.
Off the clock, I'm either learning Japanese, watching anime, reading manga (currently planning a trip for post-grad!), or I'm sitting at the piano singing some old-school crooner stuff. If I've got headphones on, it's usually jazz, j-pop or some 80's new wave hits.
