About

Professional summary

I am a C++ software engineer with commercial experience developing software for Windows and Linux environments. I work with C++11, C++14, and C++17 and have contributed to production applications, embedded-adjacent platforms, and collaborative engineering teams.

I have developed file-based interprocess communication using POSIX locking to support bidirectional command and response flows between Linux processes. I also built a hardware simulation environment that allowed test suites to execute before physical boards were available.

My experience includes maintaining and debugging test coverage across multiple subsystems, including valves, pumps, heaters, bubble detectors, and registers. I use Google Test, Git, Make, code reviews, and systematic debugging practices to support reliable software delivery.

Previously, I contributed to Folder Lock 10, a commercial Windows data-security application. My work included file-encryption logic, cloud synchronization integration, UI behavior, Windows internals, and COM interfaces within an established production codebase.

I hold a BS in Computer Science and am pursuing a master's degree in Cybersecurity. I am also interested in secure software development, vulnerability assessment, penetration-testing workflows, and systems-level engineering.
