About Me

I'm a Computer Science student at Virginia Tech, passionate about building software that makes a real impact. I'm currently pursuing my Bachelor's degree, with an expected graduation in May 2027.

My experience includes full-stack development, natural language processing, and AI integration. I love working on projects that merge technical depth with meaningful user experiences like developing AI-powered tools and responsive web apps.

Outside of tech, I've mentored both first-year engineering students and K–8th graders, and I run my own hair braiding business. These experiences have helped me grow as a leader, entrepreneur, and communicator.

I'm always looking to build on my strengths by learning, collaborating, and taking on new challenges in tech and beyond.
