About Me

Engineering robust solutions for complex problems.

I am a Computer Science student at CSUN with a passion for backend development and system architecture. My expertise lies in building scalable microservices using Spring Boot, integrating cloud services like AWS, and optimizing database performance.

From developing research platforms for NSF-funded projects to building production-grade marketplaces for NASA ARCS, I focus on creating secure, efficient, and high-performance applications.
