Who I Am

I'm a Computer Science student at Northern Kentucky University with a minor in Entrepreneurship and a builder's mindset.

At Blue North, I design automations, AI-powered internal tools, data integrations, and dashboards that help operational teams spend less time on repetitive work and make better-informed decisions.

I also build end-to-end software—from microcontrollers and APIs to responsive interfaces—because I enjoy turning complex, real-world problems into useful systems.
