Motivated by Technology,
Driven by Solutions

I'm a Computer Technology graduate from Wayne State University's College of Engineering with a near-perfect GPA and a minor in Computer Science. My background spans both the hardware and software sides of technology — from hands-on IT support to programming autonomous systems and web applications.

"Seeking a dynamic role to apply technical skills, improve IT operations, and support organizational growth through technology-driven solutions."

Whether I'm diagnosing a network issue, writing Python scripts, or building interactive web interfaces, I bring a problem-solver's mindset and a commitment to quality in everything I do. I'm continuously expanding my skills through personal projects across IT, game development, robotics, and web development.
