In Progress

I'm an aspiring software engineer based in Wichita, KS, with a passion for programming and automation. My experience spans both personal projects and professional work in quality assurance and test automation.

Early Beginnings

My journey in programming began with developing extensions for jailbroken iOS devices, which led me to learn C++ and other programming languages. Throughout high school and college, I've continued to expand my programming knowledge through both coursework and personal projects.

Professional Growth

Since my freshman year of college, I've been working at NetApp, where I've gained extensive experience in QA, data storage systems, and automation testing using Python. This role has given me hands-on experience with enterprise-level software testing and development.

Looking Forward

While I don't have a specific field of specialization in mind, I'm enthusiastic about opportunities that will challenge me and contribute to my growth as a software engineer. I'm particularly interested in roles that will allow me to leverage my testing experience while expanding into full-stack development.
