In 2013, I decided to join a VEX Robotics team through my school. This decision started an eventful journey that inevitably helped me find my calling. Initially driven by the idea of becoming a mechanical engineer, I quickly realized my passion for programming. This spark has guided me throughout my academic & robotic endeavors over the years.

A few accomplishments I am proud to share:

• 2019: Founded an international robotics alliance.
• 2020: Created the first competitive robotics program at Northern Kentucky University.
• 2023: Finished 3^rd place at the VEX World Championship.
• 2024: Served as Head Referee for the Grand Finals of the High School VEX World Championship
• Represented the VEX Robotics Competition in discussions with companies to promote STEM education and sponsorship opportunities.

I graduated from Northern Kentucky University in Spring 2024 with a Bachelor of Science in Applied Software Engineering. I am currently a Front-End Software Engineer at Fifth Third Bank.

In my free time, I enjoy refereeing for a few VEX Robotics tournaments (Middle School, High School, and Collegiate), hiking, and cheering on my favorite soccer teams.
