Turning technical work into systems people can actually use.
About
I’m a senior at the University of Minnesota, graduating in Spring 2026 with a Bachelor of Applied Science in Information Technology, focusing on the security sub-track. I enjoy working on applied technical problems not just writing code, but seeing it turn into something people can actually use and understand in real-world settings. Through my experience as a Technical Project Manager intern, I learned that I work best at the intersection of technical and non-technical teams. I liked being the person who connects ideas to execution, translates between teams, and helps keep projects moving smoothly. I’m naturally organized and drawn to roles where structure, coordination,and follow-through matter. I’m also interested in the human side of technology how people interact with systems, what makes tools intuitive, and why some products are easier to adopt than others. That perspective comes from my background and interests in psychology and human behavior, and it shapes how I think about usability, communication, and building technology that people actually want to engage with.
