I am a software engineer at Raytheon Intelligence & Space, where I develop and test software solutions using secure coding practices. I am continuously learning and have over a year of experience in this role, working with Java and development tools including Jenkins and Cucumber in an Agile environment.I hold a B.S. in Physics from the University of Notre Dame, where I conducted over 3 years of research in nuclear and accelerator physics, using Python and ROOT/C++ to analyze experimental data. I am currently pursuing an M.S. in Computer and Information Systems Security at Boston University Metropolitan College, where I am learning about the latest techniques and best practices in cybersecurity. My goal is to apply my skills and knowledge to build robust and secure applications. I get excited about solving problems, and I take pride in every piece of code I work on. I value collaboration, communication, and quality in my work.
