Background
I'm a Computer Science student at Michigan State University. I've spent the last two years building backend systems at internships, doing systems performance research in the TART Lab, and shipping my own full-stack platforms. I care about reliability, performance, and clean architecture.
Focused on: backend and API design, multi-tenant SaaS, AI integrations, database design, and systems that scale without surprises.
