Software engineer and private pilot. I build computer vision that detects aircraft from the cockpit.
CS at the University of Oregon, Clark Honors College, graduating June 2027. Open to new-grad software engineering roles, especially in aerospace.
Aircraft that don't broadcast ADS-B can be missing from a cockpit traffic display, so pilots have to spot them by eye. Atlas is on-device computer vision that finds them from an iPhone camera in the cockpit, targeting detection at 1 to 2 miles.
On footage it had never seen, the detector (trained only on public data) locked onto an aircraft as the crew spotted it and held the track for the whole encounter, filtering about 300 candidates per frame.
A NASA design challenge, two hackathon wins, and team builds.
NASA RASC-AL 2027
Project Lead, 9-person team through Oregon Blockchain Group
An autonomous, battery-powered rover concept for lunar resource discovery (Theme 3: Lunar Resource Exploration). I lead mission planning and direct research across 6 subsystem areas (3 major technical papers, 10+ pages of team notes), and designed a modular line-replaceable-unit architecture so subsystems can be repaired by EVA or robots.
In progress. NASA proposal due February 2027.
1st Place, .tech Track, QuackHacks 3 (~100 teams)
An AI subscription manager, built in 24 hours on a 3-person team, that recommends which streaming services to keep each month across 8 providers and a 2,000-title catalog. I built a Claude tool-use agent (via MCP) that carries out subscription changes, plus a Gemini computer-use agent that automates sign-ups in a remote browser.
Next.js, TypeScript, Express, MongoDB, JWT auth
Oregon Blockchain Group
A trustless escrow and arbitration protocol on Arbitrum, which I co-developed. I designed the architecture and the arbitration mechanism (Chainlink VRF juror selection, staked juror committees, slashing, appeals) and tested the core contracts.
Solidity, Foundry, Hardhat, Chainlink VRF
3rd of 45 teams, QuackHacks 2
A real-time 0 to 100 market confidence score from 5 data sources: stocks, crypto, housing, bonds and Polymarket. Built in 24 hours on a 2-person team.
Python, FastAPI
4-person team project
A full-stack backpacking trip planner.

Current roles sit on the green line
April 2026 to present (current)
Oregon Blockchain Group, Eugene
Lead the 9-person RASC-AL team (6 engineers, research, marketing). Co-developed TrustLedger.
May 2026 to present (current)
Sower Creative, Eugene
Shipped 5 production websites (2 for paying clients) as technical lead of a 3-person agency, using HTML, CSS, JavaScript and SEO schema. I own delivery end to end: responsive design, third-party integrations and GitHub-based deployment.
September 2024 to April 2025
University of Oregon, Eugene
Mentored CS 122 students weekly across two 10-week terms through debugging support and guided problem solving.
June to December 2024
Finlandia Sauna, Tigard
Assembled and wired electrical control panels for custom sauna units, from component layout to system-level QA.
University of Oregon, Clark Honors College. Expected June 2027.
GPA 3.95
Minors in Mathematics, Entrepreneurship and Political Science.
Coursework: Operating Systems, Computer Organization, C/C++ and Unix, Data Structures, Algorithms, AI, ML Statistics.
Aurora Flight Training, July to December 2024
80 hours total time
Cessna C-172N/S/SP and Diamond DA-20. FAA First Class Medical. Written exams: PAR 93%, IRA 95%.
I earned my private pilot certificate in 2024 and have 80 hours total time in Cessna 172s and the DA-20. Atlas started with a near-miss, which my thesis prospectus describes in full.
I like building software that has to hold up outside a test harness: models running on a phone in a moving cockpit, contracts that hold other people's money, and websites for paying clients.
