My journey as a software developer can be summarized with a picture my parents took of me using a computer at four years old. My love for computers and problem-solving at a young age led me to computer science and my admiration for the field grew when I discovered that my passion had the potential to serve and help others in my local community as well as communities beyond my own. My drive for meaningful work has led me to work for great companies with a focus to educate others, bridge the minority and gender gap in STEM, contribute to healthcare and improve the aviation industry.
