About Me

I am a recent Chico State graduate who received my B.S. in Computer Science in the Fall of 2021. I have experience programming a multitude of different fields and technologies through course work and self study, from web development to parallel programming with shared and distributed memory. My diverse background across different problem domains make me an adept problem solver and highly capable programmer.

I am currently a Post Bachelor Research Associate at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory in the HPC/ML/Quantum group studying high performance parallel programming methodologies and working on the RC: Capabilities Monitoring Project for the HPC Deception platform.
