Full-stack software engineer
I work across frontend interfaces, backend services, databases, and real-time systems. I'm currently focused on building new projects end to end.
Selected work
A selection of applications where I explored real-time infrastructure, authenticated data, and scientific APIs.
Mission-control dashboard for exploring upcoming rocket launches, with local countdowns, detailed mission data, embedded webcasts, and a solar-time Earth visualization. An ingestion worker refreshes The Space Devs every five minutes, writes to MongoDB and Redis, then sends cache updates to React clients through Redis Pub/Sub and Socket.IO.

Authenticated near-Earth object catalog that turns NASA’s daily NeoWs feed into a browsable watchlist with relative size, hazard status, favorites, and editable notes. Express proxies NASA, while Clerk-protected routes scope MongoDB reads and writes to the signed-in user.
Interactive catalog for searching and comparing 6,000+ confirmed exoplanets on a log-scale mass-versus-period chart. A weekly Python pipeline cleans NASA TAP data into a local snapshot; FastAPI serves the chart and generates mass-and-orbit interpretations without exposing the OpenAI key.
Experience
Software engineering experience, alongside a musical background that has shaped how I collaborate and keep learning.
