I received a bachelor’s degree in Computer Engineering from the Tickle College of Engineering at The University of Tennessee in Knoxville. During my time at UT, I gained valuable skills in both general engineering as well as in computer science, computer logic, hardware, and circuitry. After graduation, I began working as the Cybersecurity SOC Engineer at KLA+ in Ann Arbor, MI. In this position, I've built automation solutions using Python and MySQL, helped maintain and increase functionality of GUIs and web applications, and reimagined an internal web application to use the Django framework. I also completed my MBA with an emphasis on Data Analytics at Central Michigan University in December 2023.
