Full-stack engineer building scalable, data-driven applications.

I lead a development team at the New Jersey Department of Community Affairs, building tools that enhance accessibility and user experience—from internationalized eviction guides to AI-powered assistants.

As founder of lux.dev LLC, I've built open-source platforms like Parsertime that serve gaming communities and provide detailed analytics for players and coaches.

I'm pursuing a B.A. in Computer Science with a minor in AI at Cornell University.
