"If I am not contributing and adding value to something bigger than myself, then I am in the wrong place."
This conviction defined my service in the U.S. Marine Corps and is the foundation of my transition into software engineering. I don't just want to write code; I want to build resilient systems that meet the needs of others.
My background as a Marine Aviation Supply Specialist taught me that systems fail—often at the worst times. I bring that operational discipline to software, prioritizing rigorous troubleshooting and system reliability.
