About (request update)

I am a Computer Science major at Morehouse College with experience across technology, data, and finance through internships at companies including Macy’s Tech, Omnicom Media Group, Fireman’s Credit Union, and McKesson. My work has ranged from building backend microservices and dashboards to automating data workflows and strengthening compliance processes. A former college quarterback and current Assistant Keeper of Finance for Omega Psi Phi, I bring discipline, leadership, and teamwork into every role. Skilled in Python, Java, C++, SQL, and cloud platforms, I am passionate about leveraging technology to solve problems and drive impact

Current Whereabouts:

I’m currently focused on finishing my degree in Computer Science at Morehouse College while sharpening my skills in software engineering and data science. I enjoy working on coding projects, fitness training, and community service through Omega Psi Phi Fraternity, Inc. I’m also passionate about learning emerging technologies like AI and cloud computing and exploring how they can create real-world solutions.

Life & Professional Aspirations:

My goal is to become a technology leader who uses software engineering and data science to solve critical problems in industries like finance, healthcare, and cybersecurity. Long term, I aspire to launch initiatives that expand opportunities for underrepresented students in STEM, particularly at HBCUs. Beyond my career, I want to be known for balancing professional excellence with mentorship, community impact, and a commitment to lifelong growth.
