ABOUT ME

Computer Science student at Spelman College graduated in December 2025, specializing in full-stack development, virtual reality, and machine learning.

I've had the privilege of interning twice at Amazon, where I optimized warehouse workflows and built user-friendly interfaces used across North America and Europe. Currently, I'm researching ML frameworks for phylogenetic modeling and developing VR training simulations for Hyundai's manufacturing processes. As Co-Lead of the HBCU Game Jam and president of Spelman's XR Club, I'm passionate about making tech more accessible and creative.
