About Me
I am an enthusiastic and empathetic engineer who loves collaborating with others to solve problems and grow my skills.
I enjoy creating solutions that are functional, meaningful, and also beautiful.
When I am away from the keyboard, you'll find me dancing at Zumba class, volunteering in my community, or geocaching while on travel adventures with my family.
