Experience & Education
My professional experience reflects engineering work across web development, systems optimization, and data-driven decision making. Each role has involved building and maintaining systems, not just pages, with attention to performance, structure, and measurable impact.
What I've learned from these experiences is that good engineering work requires more than technical skills. It demands understanding business context, collaborating with non-technical stakeholders, making decisions under uncertainty, and maintaining systems that real people depend on. Whether I'm optimizing ad campaigns, building e-commerce platforms, or maintaining content management systems, I approach each project with the same principles: understand the problem deeply, design for maintainability, and measure what matters.

Coursework
My coursework is curated to show strong computer science fundamentals and exposure across systems, algorithms, machine learning, databases, and UI. These courses have shaped how I think about engineering problems and informed my approach to system design.
What I value most about my education is the balance between theory and practice. Courses like Systems Programming and Computer Design taught me to think about how software interacts with hardware and the operating system. Database Systems and Software Design helped me understand how to model real-world requirements and make architectural decisions. And courses in machine learning and data science gave me the mathematical foundation to work with complex, ambiguous problems.
Below, I've organized the coursework by theme rather than chronologically, focusing on the skills and concepts that are most relevant to engineering work. Each course listing includes the key skills I learned and, where applicable, links to projects that demonstrate those skills in practice.
