About Me
I'm an Information Technology student at the University of Cincinnati, pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Information Technology with a focus on software and application development. I'm expected to graduate in August 2025.
My experience spans academic coursework, personal projects, and professional work involving internal tools, automation, and systems support. I've worked with both development and IT support contexts, which has shaped a practical approach to building and improving systems.
