Projects

Real systems built and shipped. Each project solves an actual problem.

PROJECT 01

AI-Powered Email Automation

Architected a full automation pipeline from prompt design to delivery — integrating Jira/Confluence with a PostgreSQL vector knowledge base for client update emails and context-aware AI replies with custom edge-case handling.

About & Education

A little more context on who I am and where I'm coming from.

Who I Am

I'm a Computer Science student at Bowling Green State University with a minor in General Business. I love the intersection of software and real-world problems: automating a workflow that saves a team hours each week, improving a storefront that customers actually use, or building a game that brings people together.

Outside of software, I'm a team captain in intramural basketball and volleyball, which has sharpened my communication, leadership, and ability to perform under pressure just as much as any classroom has.
