Software Engineer

About

I'm an aspiring software engineer studying computer science at Missouri University of Science and Technology. During my time at Missouri S&T, I've gained valuable experience through my involvement in various activities. I'm a member of the Missouri S&T Satellite Research Team, contributing to two subsystems: control & data handling (CDH) and Guidance, Navigation, and Control (GNC). In these roles, I've actively contributed to coding for embedded systems. Additionally, I'm part of the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM) and participate in ACM Comp, the competitive programming club. Our focus is on problem-solving using mainly Python, unless performance dictates otherwise, on platforms like Kattis. I look forward to further developing my skills and knowledge as I progress in my journey as a software engineer.
