About Me

Currently pursuing Computer Science at ECU with a focus on software engineering, cybersecurity, and systems design. I'm passionate about building efficient, scalable solutions and have hands-on experience with modern development practices.

My journey started with curiosity about how systems work under the hood, leading me to explore everything from network protocols to database optimization. I enjoy the challenge of writing clean, maintainable code and believe in the power of well-documented, thoughtful software architecture.

Code Highlights

Clean, efficient code samples from my projects demonstrating problem-solving and best practices.

ml_task_manager.py - Priority Algorithm
class TaskPrioritizer:
def calculate_priority(self, task):
# ML-driven priority scoring
urgency = self.model.predict_urgency(task.features)
deadline_weight = self._calculate_deadline_factor(task)
complexity = self._analyze_complexity(task.description)
return (urgency * 0.4) + (deadline_weight * 0.4) + (complexity * 0.2)
→ Combines ML predictions with weighted scoring for optimal task prioritization
library_queries.sql - Optimized Joins
-- Efficient query for overdue books with member details
SELECT
m.member_name,
b.title,
l.due_date,
DATEDIFF(CURRENT_DATE, l.due_date) AS days_overdue
FROM loans l
INNER JOIN members m ON l.member_id = m.id
INNER JOIN books b ON l.book_id = b.id
WHERE l.due_date < CURRENT_DATE
AND l.returned_date IS NULL
ORDER BY days_overdue DESC;
→ Indexed joins with computed columns for fast overdue book reporting
task_manager.py - Clean Architecture
class TaskManager:
def __init__(self):
self.storage = FileStorage('tasks.json')
self.validator = TaskValidator()
def add_task(self, description, priority=1):
"""Add task with validation and persistence"""
if not self.validator.is_valid(description):
raise ValueError("Invalid task description")
task = Task(description, priority)
return self.storage.save(task)
→ Separation of concerns with validation, storage abstraction, and error handling
