About me


Senior Information Technology student at Georgia Gwinnett College with concentrations in Software Development and Digital Media. I enjoy designing research-backed interfaces and architecting modular, scalable systems that bring clarity and structure to complex data.

My Roles

Satisfeed GeoAnalytics Dashboard: Satisfeed is a MapLibre-powered analytics dashboard that turns distribution data and school / library location data into privacy-aware geographic insights for food-insecurity planning.

  • Sponsor: Georgia Gwinnett College and Satisfeed
  • Team Size: 3 people
  • Duration: Fall 2025

I led the front-end architecture and UI/UX for Satisfeed, designing the dashboard’s information hierarchy, visual system, and interactive map experience. Along with my team, I built the Next.js + Tailwind + MapLibre front end, implemented layered map overlays and heatmaps, and helped shape a privacy-aware GeoJSON data flow so complex datasets could be explored clearly and safely in a real client-facing environment.

AnalySim: Analysim is a free online web platform enabling researchers to analyze and share data by providing interactive visualizations, and collaborate with others. The open platform is specialized for working with high-dimensional data sets such as those constructed via computational modeling. Analysim also allows you to run custom analysis on any type of data.

  • Sponsor: Georgia Gwinnett College
  • Team Size: Solo
  • Duration: Spring 2026

As a front-end developer, I so far have focused on refactoring AnalySim’s UI by introducing a token-based design system and global styles. Migrating pages into reusable, consistent patterns to improve maintainability and scalability.
