It all started in my sophomore year of high school when my curiosity about how computers worked led me to Udacity.
I enrolled in <i>Introduction to Programming</i> and wrote my first lines of Python. That course lit a spark, and
soon I was experimenting on a Raspberry Pi blinking LEDs, modding Minecraft, and even synthesizing music. I
loved seeing how code could bring hardware to life.
</p>
<p class="text-l lg:text-2xl text-left py-2">
I went on to study Computer Engineering at Texas A&M University, where I gained a solid foundation in both Computer
Science and Electrical Engineering. That's where I discovered the power of C++ and the thrill of having full control
over a program.
</p>
<p class="text-l lg:text-2xl text-left py-2">
I joined Innovative Signals Analysis after graduating and have spent the past five years developing
event-driven microservices for high-performance, fault-tolerant systems, leveraging technologies
such as Kubernetes, Python, C++, RabbitMQ, and S3.
</p>
<p class="text-l lg:text-2xl text-left py-2">
Alongside my professional work, I earned an M.S. in Computer Science from the University of Texas at Austin.
My graduate studies deepened my understanding of parallel computing, operating systems, and machine learning.
</p>
<p class="text-l lg:text-2xl text-left py-2">
Today, I'm exploring Rust to build secure, efficient software that interacts closely with hardware.
