I’m an aspiring backend-focused software engineer building data-driven systems with Python and MySQL.
I design relational databases, write stored-procedure-driven APIs, and build business-logic layers that validate, transform, and persist user data. My background in healthcare and psychology shapes how I build systems — with an emphasis on data integrity, reliability, and real-world workflows.
I’m currently completing my M.S. in Computer Science (Software Engineering) and graduating in May 2026, and I’m exploring junior backend and data engineering roles (remote, Philadelphia, or Pittsburgh).
- Python
- SQL / MySQL
- Tableau
- Power BI
- Stored Procedures

A Python + MySQL backend system designed to support:
- Multi-user mood and journal tracking
- Tagging and categorization
- Stored-procedure-based CRUD operations
- Aggregated reporting (weekly trends)
- CSV export for analysis
The system is built as a 3-tier architecture with:
- GUI
- Business Logic Layer
- Data Access Layer
