Forging reliable structures.

Each line, laid like stone.

Work worth signing.

Devotion to craft.

Tempered to endure time and use.

About

Software Developer

Software developer based in North Houston, TX, with a BS in Computer Science (summa cum laude) from UAT. My path here wasn't traditional — six years as a state law enforcement investigator and five years in IT support shaped how I approach problem-solving: methodically, evidence-first, with an eye for what breaks under pressure.

I build with Python, JavaScript, C++, and PHP, working across web development, database engineering, and security-conscious system design. My capstone project in PLC ladder logic — an automated warehouse sorting system — sparked a deep curiosity for where software meets physical hardware, and I'm actively exploring industrial automation and robotics as growth areas.

I believe code should be resilient, defensive, and honest — the same standards I applied to investigations. Every function should answer for what it does, why it exists, and what happens when it fails.

Currently seeking entry-level software development roles in the Houston metropolitan area. Open to relocation.
