I was born in Franklin, Louisiana, and grew up across several east coast states, from New Hampshire to South Carolina to Florida. Moving often taught me adaptability and connection; I learned how to communicate with many different people, from varying backgrounds, which to shaped how I collaborate and lead today.
At Columbia College in South Carolina, I pursued Mathematics and Chemistry, drawn to the logic and structure behind how things work. It was during those studies that I took my first programming course and discovered how seamlessly problem-solving and creativity could merge. My professors recognized my strength for debugging and development, and together we replaced several math courses with programming, one of the best and most exciting decisions of my life.

While in college, I worked as a tutor, using code to track my students’ progress and manage finances; an early hint of how I’d combine automation with real-world problem-solving. After graduation, I founded a small business, applying data-driven systems to operations and client experience. It was successful, but it also made me realize that my true passion was in creating tools that make people’s work simpler, smarter, and more meaningful.
Today, as a Senior AI and Automation Engineer, that same passion drives everything I do, designing intelligent systems that bridge technology and human insight, helping teams focus on impact instead of inefficiency. I believe great automation doesn’t replace people, it empowers them.
