Career Goals

Where I’m heading and how I’m planning to get there.

Long-term direction

I’m aiming for software and systems careers where I can own features end-to-end—distributed systems, scalable web platforms, and performance-conscious backends—while still drawing on my architecture and embedded foundations (e.g. RISC-V, systems coursework). I’m also building experience in web operations and digital marketing technology through upcoming work in marketing web operations.

What I’m doing now

Strengthening my threads in distributed systems and systems architecture, shipping MERN/Next.js projects, and growing as a leader through SASE events and student org work—so I can pair strong communication with solid technical delivery.

Advanced coursework & technical depth

Push on systems, performance, and full-stack delivery; keep leading on campus (SASE, Barbell) and mentoring where I can.

After graduation

Software / systems-oriented engineering roles

Contribute to products that need reliable backends, clear APIs, and fast UIs—whether that’s platform engineering, distributed services, or web-centric product teams.
