Summary

Software engineer in Kansas City, Missouri with a B.S. and M.S. in Computer Science (AI concentration). I founded Sozo Tech Enterprise and lead product, architecture, and a team of 3 — shipping The Sozo CRM to production and building AnglerIQ, an AI-powered mobile fish finder. Full-stack across React, Next.js, React Native, and PostgreSQL, with computer vision and agentic engineering in the day-to-day. Before Sozo I owned technology at Elevate Solar, including the public site and an internal facial-recognition tool.
