Technology & Programming

Software Development

Both academically and in my career, software development has always been at the forefront. Though I cannot share the projects publicly, I can speak to my experiences developing numerous tools and systems from design to production. This has included working on an alerting system, a report generator, integrations, and APIs that have impacted hundreds of engineers. When coding, I prioritize readability, scalability, and resiliency.

To name a few, I have experience with:

  • Python

  • Java

  • GraphQL

  • Agile Methodologies

  • Github/Gitlab

  • AWS Services

amongst others, and I’m regularly expanding my skillset

Information and Infrastructure Security

Through my current role and a previous internship at Disney, I have developed a strong foundation in cybersecurity. As an intern on Disney’s Information Security team, I gained hands-on experience in application security, penetration testing, and open-source intelligence (OSINT). In my current role, I’ve expanded my expertise in cloud compliance, helping engineers safeguard their work from potential risks. Additionally, I have been involved in actively monitoring high-profile events on our streaming platforms, including the Oscars, NFL playoffs, and the 2024 Presidential Election.

Emerging Technologies

I am always excited about staying current with emerging technologies, learning about how they work and how they can best be utilized. From Figma, to AR/VR, to AI, I am regularly seeking opportunities to familiarize with and embrace new tools.

Notably, in 2024, I led a team of 4 colleagues to innovate and develop a patent titled 'Artificial Intelligence Based Content Immersion Environment Generation,' which was filed by The Walt Disney Company. As a result, I was honored with a Disney Inventor Award and am currently awaiting news of the patent’s issuance.
