Computer Science @ Harvey Mudd • Data Analytics + Full-Stack Builder • Student-Athlete
I’m a Computer Science student at Harvey Mudd College (Class of 2027) focused on data analytics, full-stack product development, and building tools that turn raw information into decisions. I’ve shipped dashboards and scheduling tools, and I’m currently extending a real project from a V1 prototype into a V2 with SQL-backed analytics.
Languages: Python, Java, C++, JavaScript, Racket • Web: React, Next.js, Tailwind CSS • Data: PostgreSQL (learning), SQL (in progress) • APIs: Google Sheets API, OpenAI API • Tools: Git
A lot of organizations have the data they need — but it’s scattered, unstructured, and difficult to query. Reporting becomes manual, dashboards become fragile, and insights arrive too late.
I build systems that fix that by:
- Turning messy sources into clean dashboards and role-based views
- Designing workflows that keep data structured, auditable, and updatable
- Automating repetitive analysis and writing using AI, while keeping outputs controlled
- Shipping software like a real team: branches, PRs, review-ready commits
I’m currently pursuing data analytics / analytics engineering / data science internships where I can:
- Work with real datasets (messy, multi-source, changing)
- Build dashboards and reporting pipelines that drive decisions
- Combine analysis + engineering (not just notebooks)
- Learn fast, iterate with feedback, and ship production-quality work
September 2025 – December 2025 • Claremont, CA
Developed responsive dashboards and scheduling tools for athletes and coaches, collaborating on backend API design and database integration.
Highlights
- Built scalable UI components with React + Next.js
- Collaborated on API/data integration using Spring Boot + PostgreSQL
- Implemented real-time updates and clean end-to-end data flow
August 2025 – Present
Collaborating on a scheduling platform that integrates academic course catalogs with athletic practice schedules to detect conflicts and streamline planning.
What I’m building
- Responsive calendar UI, course search/filters, role-based dashboards
- Frontend development in React / Next.js
- Iteration with real stakeholders (athletes/coaches/admins)
Summer 2025
Built a full-stack dashboard that uses Google Sheets as a live backend for Duke basketball game data, and generates structured content automatically.
Highlights
- Next.js + TypeScript + Tailwind CSS
- Google Sheets API as the live datastore (read/write)
- OpenAI API to generate structured:
- game recaps
- tweets
- hashtags
- Secure server-side actions to write outputs back to the data source
I’m currently building a V2 of BlueDevils Digest that keeps V1 intact and adds modern UI, filters, SQL, analytics, and improved AI narrative generation.
What makes this a real engineering project
- V1 stays untouched as the original shipped build
- V2 lives in separate folders and is developed incrementally via milestone branches + PRs
- Each milestone is reviewable, testable, and documented like a production workflow
V2 areas I’m actively working in
app/dashboard_v2/(new dashboard UI)lib/metrics/(analytics + computed values)lib/filters/(filter logic + state)lib/db/+prisma/(SQL-backed data layer)scripts/syncSheetsToDb.ts(pipeline: Sheets → DB)
V1 used Google Sheets as the “source of truth.” V2 upgrades the data layer so the dashboard can support:
- More flexible querying for analytics
- Cleaner derived metrics
- A foundation for repeatable reporting as the dataset grows
Co-founder & Full-Stack Developer • August 2024 – Present
Designing and developing a fantasy platform for trading athletes like stocks.
- Built pricing algorithms combining performance + engagement metrics
- Focused on dynamic, market-style valuations that update over time
August 2025 – Present
Tutoring and grading for data structures and algorithms.
- Tutoring ~50 students individually and in groups
- Feedback on syntax, efficiency, documentation, and problem-solving approach
- Python, Java, C++, JavaScript, Racket
- HTML, CSS
- SQL (in progress)
- React, Next.js
- Tailwind CSS
- PostgreSQL (learning through V2 migration work)
- Spring Boot (collaborative work)
- Google Sheets API (V1 datastore + sync source)
- OpenAI API
- Git
