Engineering mindset

I learn by building.

I connect class ideas to real projects, test the result, and keep improving it.

Why Computer Engineering

I have always enjoyed taking technology apart, understanding how its pieces communicate, and putting it back together in a more useful form. Computer Engineering gives me a way to work across that complete path—from electronics and embedded hardware to software, interfaces, and connected services.

Current interests

  • Embedded systems and firmware
  • Mobile products connected to real-world data
  • Electronics and hardware integration
  • Testing, validation, and technical troubleshooting

How I work

  • Understand the existing system and constraints
  • Break the problem into observable pieces
  • Test with real inputs, hardware, or user flows
  • Document what changed and what remains uncertain
Career direction

I want to work where hardware and software meet.

I’m looking for entry-level work in embedded systems, firmware, computer hardware, electronics, systems integration, validation, controls, or software development.

I expect to graduate from the University of Nebraska–Lincoln in May 2027 and can start full time in May or June 2027.

What I bring

01
Hands-on project experience across mobile software and electronics.
02
Professional IT support and troubleshooting experience.
03
Clear communication with technical and nontechnical users.
Outside engineering

What I do outside class.

I enjoy fitness, flying and improving FPV drones, disc golf, fishing, and exploring new technology.
