Software Engineer Intern

TopTier · Portland, Oregon

June 2026 – September 2026

  • Convinced engineering team to adopt a relational database system instead of large spreadsheets by developing a full-stack application with React, FastAPI, and MySQL that now stores hundreds of test results across 50 machine configurations.
  • Implemented a machine simulation program that modeled output rate with PyQt6 and SimPy validated against the physical machine’s real performance which assisted the sales team in quoting 8 new machines over the past year.

Undergraduate Learning Assistant

Oregon State University College of Engineering · Corvallis, Oregon

September 2025 – Present

  • Led 4 weekly lab sessions for 100+ students in Introduction to Computer Science and Introduction to Systems Programming, teaching class design, inheritance, polymorphism, debugging, and system design in Python and C.
  • Mentored a failing student through weekly one-on-one sessions over 7 weeks, focusing on problem decomposition and debugging; student’s scores improved from 0 to 100% and passed the course, citing tutoring as the key reason.

Undergraduate Research Assistant

Oregon State University STAR Lab · Corvallis, Oregon

November 2024 – Present

  • Developed a dataset-generation pipeline for Natural Semantic Metalanguage (NSM) translation, converting English sentences into NSM based representations to support cross-lingual translation research using the lab’s custom model.
  • Designed a composite evaluation metric for NSM explication quality combining round-trip reconstruction similarity, prime ratio, and molecule ratio into a single score, enabling systematic comparison across language models.

President

AI Club · Oregon State University

September 2025 – Present

  • Planned and executed the AI Club @ OSU’s inaugural ‘AI for Good’ hackathon, managing logistics, $2,000 in funding, and sponsorship from the AI Collective, supporting over 100 participants with free credits and 35 project submissions.
  • Collaborated with the ACM Women’s Chapter @ OSU to host networking events with informative talks, demos, and hands-on workshops on data cleaning, computer vision, agentic workflows, and AI tools, each with over 40 attendees.
  • Led outreach efforts and planned 5 guest speaker events with speakers from NVIDIA, Google, and NASA and over 30 members in attendance throughout two terms.
Projects

3d Block Coding Platform

  • CI/CD
  • Github Actions
  • Godot
  • System Design

March 2026

  • Architected a visual block-based language interpreter for 7 ‘blocks’ that allow implementation of variables, conditionals, control flow, and loops with 5 puzzles that introduce those concepts to beginner programmers.
  • Built a GitHub Actions CI/CD pipeline running unit and integration tests on every PR and auto-deploying Windows and macOS builds to itch.io; automated checks caught defects before merge in 17% of runs.

Smart Cane with Computer Vision

  • Open CV
  • Flask
  • Edge AI
  • Embedded Systems

May 2026

  • Built a smart-cane for the blind with obstacle detection and avoidance by orchestrating 2 computer vision models on the edge and 3 separate types of sensor input for under $80 placing 2nd in the BeaverHacks 2026 Hardware track.
  • Designed a 4-tier priority decision tree architecture that arbitrates between ultrasonic and laser proximity, gyroscopic tilt, CV obstacle confidence, and a 500ms staleness fallback to keep the cane responsive if vision data drops.
