"We didn't realize we were making memories. We just knew we were having fun." - Winnie The Pooh

I am a junior developer passionate about writing clear and concise code. Previously, I worked as a Software Engineering Intern at Inspire Medical Systems in embedded firmware test and integration, where I developed automated, instrumented functional requirements tests. Previously I worked in test and integration at Sensata Technologies where I worked on an internal CAN monitor and learned about embedded systems communication protocols like CAN J1939 and UDS protocol.

In my spare time I enjoy resistance training, listening to Mike Israetel's YouTube channel and playing Go.
