As an Cloud engineer at Tinker AFB with over 10 years of work experience in various disciplines and a master's degree in computer engineering, I am passionate about creating innovative solutions for complex problems in the fields of software engineering and drone networking. I collaborate with a diverse and talented team of engineers, technicians, and researchers to support the Air Force's mission and goals.In my past role, I have developed skills and knowledge in Java, object-oriented design, C, Python, GPS, GUI, and quadcopter drones. I have applied these skills to design, calibrate, debug, and test drones, as well as to provide helpful solutions for software maintenance division conflicts. I have also mentored and supervised two undergraduate students in various assignments, and shared my insights and feedback with others. I am always eager to learn new skills and technologies, and to contribute to the advancement of software/cloud engineering and drone embedded software design.
