About Me
I am a Software Engineer based in Salem, Oregon, currently developing the Windows desktop software in .NET and MySQL at Open Dental Software.
My Background
I graduated from Oregon State University in June 2025 with a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science and a 3.90 GPA, concentrating in Web and Mobile Application Development.
Today, I work full-time as a Software Engineer at Open Dental Software. As part of our core application team, my day-to-day work centers on maintaining and modernizing our Windows desktop software. I modernize existing windows by converting WinForms to WPF, develop custom controls, resolve bugs, and build new full-stack features and services in C# connecting our client with MySQL databases.
Prior to Open Dental Software, I completed software engineering and QA internships at Zeek Interactive, where I developed Laravel and FilamentPHP web apps, built RESTful APIs, and wrote automated cross-platform test suites.
Whether working on our desktop software or modern web projects in React and Next.js, I care deeply about writing clean, maintainable, and reliable code.
