About Me
I'm a highly motivated student at Clark University (Presidential Scholar, Honors Program) with a strong background in business administration & computer science. My work bridges AI governance, full-stack development, and data-driven strategy.
As a Global Engineering Intern at Broadridge, I researched AI augmentation opportunities and regulatory compliance (EU AI Act). I also led IT at West Side Ave, deploying an e-commerce solution that generated $6,317+ in revenue.
I built Queantic — a web development and analytics platform. It gives clients a way to establish their presence on the web with actionable insights to promote growth.
