About Me

I'm a computer science student at CSU Long Beach who enjoys building software and digging into large, complex systems. I like working on technical projects that push me to learn new things and understand how modern tools and technologies actually work, and I spend a lot of time exploring new technologies.

Outside of programming, I'm deeply interested in music and audio fidelity. I enjoy how sound is captured, processed, and reproduced, and I care a lot about precision and sound quality. I'm also a big baseball fan, especially from an analytical perspective. What draws me to the game is how strongly it's shaped by math, probability, and long-term patterns, which mirrors complex systems (which is pretty cool).

Here are a list of articles, threads, and links I've found interesting --> View

Skills

  • Python, C++, and a bit of shell scripting
  • Numerical methods, simulation, and data pipelines
  • Linux and Git
  • Security fundamentals and applied cryptography

What I'm Looking For

I'm looking for internship opportunities where I can learn by working on real software alongside experienced engineers. I'm drawn to problems where improving efficiency, reliability, or automation actually makes a difference in how a system is used or maintained. I'm especially interested in roles where I can deepen my understanding of how production code is designed, tested, and maintained.
