Software Developer | Mobile & Web Developer | Problem Solver

I build clean, user-focused applications with Flutter, Firebase, .NET, and modern web technologies. I'm passionate about creating software that solves real problems while continuing to grow as a developer.

About Me

I'm a software developer with an Bachelor of Science in Computer Science and hands-on experience designing and building applications for both academic and professional clients.

Throughout my education, I maintained a strong commitment to learning while developing projects using Flutter, Dart, Firebase, C++, C#, Java, HTML/CSS, and .NET technologies. My capstone project with Echelon Fit gave me the opportunity to collaborate with a real company, where I spent four months developing features for a Flutter application and working within a professional software development environment.

I enjoy solving problems through code and creating applications that are both functional and intuitive. Whether I'm developing mobile applications, designing user interfaces, or learning new technologies, I'm always looking for ways to improve my skills and build software that makes a meaningful impact.

Outside of programming, I enjoy continuous learning, mentoring others, and exploring emerging technologies that shape the future of software development.
