About Me
Aspiring Software Developer
Student at Clemson University
Pursuing a Blend of Innovation and Security
Welcome! I'm currently a Senior at Clemson University, pursuing a Bachelor of Science degree in Computer Science, complemented by a minor in Cybersecurity, and set to graduate in May 2025.
I have a deep interest in software development and the ever-evolving realm of technology. During my time at Clemson, I developed a strong interest in the fields of software development for embedded systems and Cloud Engineering. My academic journey has not only deepened my passion for computer science and Cybersecurity but also expanded my focus to include these exciting areas.
I look forward to pursuing a professional career in software development for embedded systems and Cloud Engineering, where I can apply my skills and continue exploring these dynamic fields.
Education and Current Status
Senior at Clemson University
As a dedicated Computer Science major, I am currently focused on advancing my expertise through courses like Cloud Computing Architecture and Usable Privacy and Security. These subjects have provided me with invaluable insights into designing scalable systems and understanding critical aspects of data security and user privacy. The hands-on learning in these areas has significantly deepened my technical knowledge and problem-solving capabilities.
I am also excited to announce that after graduating in May 2025, I will begin my journey as a Software Engineering intern at Sentec. In this role, I will work on solving complex challenges in embedded systems, assist in automating software testing processes, create technical documentation, and provide support across various teams. This internship will allow me to refine my technical expertise, gain hands-on experience in a professional environment, and build a solid foundation for a career in software engineering.
I am genuinely excited and deeply grateful for this opportunity to contribute to Sentec’s innovative projects while furthering my knowledge and skills.

University Involvement
My involvement in extracurriculars at Clemson
Clemson Pickleball Club Fall 2023
The Clemson Pickleball Club has been a highlight of my time at Clemson, as it offers me a place for the sport as well as a community to be a part of. I really enjoy attending the regular practice sessions that are offered, as well as the exclusive events that I get invited to.
Being involved in this club has enabled me to meet many new people and be a part of a new community.
The Clemson Association for Information Systems student chapter has enabled me to enhance my career at Clemson through professional networking and events like tech talks.
Being involved in this association has given me access to systems career and technology information, as well as invitations to exclusive events.
The German Professional Society arrange events with German companies that create job and internship opportunities. Being apart of this Society has allowed me network and get familiar with numerous local and global German companies.
I enjoy being apart of GSP as it gives me exlusive invitations to conferences that happen at Clemson.
Being a part of an Intramural Soccer team over a couple of semesters has been very rewarding, as I played for many years throughout high school.
Involving myself in this extracurricular has allowed me to keep the game I love an active part of my life but has also allowed me to engage in healthy competition.
This extracurricular, called "Stammtisch," is a German word that translates to "regulars' table" and refers to an informal group meeting that is generally held every two weeks at Backstreets in Clemson. We gather together and enjoy food and drinks while everyone, students and faculty, practice speaking German and discuss various topics.
I enjoy attending these events as I speak German fluently and can help beginners with their German.
