I'm a fourth year student at the University of Massachusetts Amherst expecting to graduate in May 2018. After graduation, I'll be moving to Portland, OR to join Carbon Black as a Software Engineer.
Ever since I was young, I've liked to build things. As a child, that usually meant playing with Legos or marble tracks. Once I discovered programming, my "building" took on a digital aspect. In the past few years, I've become increasingly interested in building teams and communities. The process of starting with a blank slate and creating something new drives me like nothing else.
Creation for creation's sake, however, is unfulfilling. I am particularly attracted to values-based projects and companies with a clear vision to either promote the general welfare, help others achieve their goals, or else add a little more fun to life.
When I'm not working, you'll most likely find me traveling abroad, lost in a good book, or playing board games with friends.
