Hi, I'm Andrew.
I'm a CS student at Illinois Tech in Chicago who's commonly heard saying things like "that kicked my ass" or "that was terrible" in the same breath as "that was so much fun/absolutely awful, let's do it again!" (i.e. type II & type III fun); usuallly about something that happened on my bike or after surviving a properly challenging exam. When I'm not slogging my way through leetcode/CLRS/a gnarly debugging session or in the middle of yet another bike ride in the kind of Midwestern weather that makes me question every decision I ever made, I can be found working on a few personal projects, cooking for my family, or playing with my dog.
Hire me
I'm currently looking for a new Software Engineering role, beginning Summer 2026. If you're looking for a curious, driven, & self-starting programmer/developer/problem-solver, you can find my resume on this site (also available as a pdf).
My interests are broad, but I typically get excited about a job listing when it talks about any of the following:
- mentorship & experience helping junior engineers grow
- solving some problem for everyone
- pair programming or shadowing
- anything using Rust
- tooling (like the bike-shedding that happened while I was ostensibly working on this site)
- backend/full-stack web work
- compiler engineering
If any of that sounds like you (or someone you know), I'd love to hear from you!
Other stuff
If you've made it this far, perhaps you'd like to see more of my work?
