About

Hi, I’m Chris. I’m a developer studying Computer Science at the University of Cincinnati.

I build software across backend systems, product surfaces, and the infrastructure that helps applications feel reliable in the real world. I’m also completing an internship abroad in Germany during Spring 2026, which has become a useful way to stretch how I work, communicate, and learn.

My technical interests sit around backend development, API design, system design, DevOps, CI/CD, debugging, and building products that can survive real constraints. I like work where the details matter and the system has to become clearer over time.

Academically, I’m building full-stack engineering skills across frontend, backend, databases, and infrastructure. After I graduate next year, I plan to pursue an MBA to deepen how I think about product strategy, business fundamentals, and decision-making at scale.

Outside of software, I’m drawn to discipline and momentum: weightlifting, reading, language learning, socializing, and exploring new cities.

Things I’m proud of

I’ve gained professional experience through co-ops and learned how to contribute on real engineering teams, where communication and reliability matter as much as the code itself.

I’ve designed and built a full-stack application end-to-end, taking it from idea to working platform and improving it against actual constraints.

I’ve also worked on performance-critical scientific software, profiling runtime behavior and making targeted optimizations based on real measurements instead of guesses.

Where I’m heading

Long-term, I want to become the kind of software engineer who can design scalable systems, lead projects end-to-end, and build products that positively affect communities.

I’m aiming toward backend and systems-focused engineering, while getting better at explaining technical work, weighing tradeoffs, and shipping maintainable solutions with other people.
