01 / About

A little about me.

I'm a passionate software engineer who enjoys problem-solving. Enjoying the full-stack development process; from designing and implementing backend systems to working the frontend and user experience. I'm always eager to take on new challenges and contribute.

My computer science background spans between application development and lower-level systems work. Over time that has taken me through application development, systems programming, cloud infrastructure, automation, data processing, and plenty of side projects that started with “I wonder if I can make this work.”

Away from development, you’ll usually find me with family, playing video games, or working on my vehicles.

03 / Projects

Things I’ve built.

A few projects I’ve enjoyed working on, from sports data visualization to CPU emulation.

01

Data visualization · 2022

NFL Data Visualizer - Click to View

I built this around NFL Next Gen Stats from the 2022 Big Data Bowl. It renders player movement from individual plays and gave me a good reason to work through a fairly large real-world dataset.

Systems programming · 2020

Intel 8080 Emulator

An Intel 8080 emulator I built with another developer using C++ and SDL. It includes CPU instruction emulation, a disassembler, display and input handling, and eventually ran Space Invaders — the fun part.
