I am a software engineer who likes to make applications that are enjoyable to use and that streamline complicated processes. Lately I've been focusing on front end web development with React, but I enjoy learning new tools and technologies across the full stack. I'm particularly interested in learning more about developing Progressive Web Apps, working with JavaScript static type checkers, and contributing back to the open source community.
I recently graduated from Northeastern University with a B.S. in Computer Science and Mathematics. During that time, I completed three 6-month long co-ops, with the most recent taking place at HubSpot. Outside of coding, I like to play board games, and I am getting acquainted with my new sewing machine.
Selected projects

For an open-ended class project, I wanted to suggest an answer to a question that consumes every student's attention at the end of the semester: "What can I do to spend my entire printing allowance?" I built this public full-stack web app to collect activism flyers intended for crowd-sourced distribution by college students.
Chelsea Handler: Gotta Go!
Uses Swift
Gotta Go lets you schedule messages that will be texted to you later to help you get out of an awkward real-life situation. While working at Yeti, I pushed the project from being a proof of concept to becoming a fully polished app ready for initial release. I built the flow for creating your own excuses, and I refined the UX to ensure using the app would be an enjoyable experience.
