CS student at Colby College that enjoys building distributed systems and optimizing performance at scale.
About
I'm a computer science student at Colby College, graduating in December 2026. I've spent my summers interning at HashiCorp, Garmin, and Netsmart, where I've worked on distributed systems, performance optimization, and building tools that serve thousands of users.
I'm interested in optimizing online experiences, learning new technologies, and building with code. Whether it's identifying bottlenecks in production systems, designing cache layers to reduce latency, or building tools that make developers' lives easier, I enjoy solving technical challenges that have real impact.
Experience
Software Engineer Intern
HashiCorp
June 2025 – Aug 2025
San Francisco, CA
Worked on Boundary, HashiCorp's identity-based access management platform, focusing on performance optimization and reliability. Identified and resolved critical performance bottlenecks affecting major customers, built load testing infrastructure, and fixed CLI issues that improved stability for thousands of users. Created monitoring dashboards and refactored core services to handle high-scale workloads.
Software Engineer Intern
Garmin
Sept 2024 – Dec 2024
Yarmouth, ME
Built backend infrastructure for Garmin's subscription billing system. Developed microservices using .NET and gRPC, implemented caching strategies that improved API performance, and created automation tools that saved the company over $120k annually. Worked across the stack from database optimization to infrastructure as code, shipping features that directly impacted customer payments and billing workflows.
Software Engineer Intern
Netsmart
June 2024 – Aug 2024
Overland Park, KS
Developed internal tools and optimized backend services for healthcare software. Built a document tracking system that streamlined support workflows for multiple engineering teams, and improved database query performance that significantly reduced application load times. Worked with modern web technologies and Java-based microservices to deliver tools that improved developer productivity.
