ai engineer @ gonzaga iiat — building intelligent systems
I graduated from RIT in 2024 with a degree in Computer Science and a specialization in machine learning. Since then, I’ve joined Gonzaga University’s Institute for Informatics & Applied Technology as an AI Engineer, helping build innovative solutions powered by AI that empower student learning.
Over the years I’ve worked on projects that tackle the challenges and limitations of machine learning and artificial intelligence, alongside ongoing work in agentic systems and interactive media.
My passion stems from the joy I experience when building things, both software and hardware, and I expect to keep at it for as long as possible.
