A little about me

Tyler on a wooden bridge surrounded by trees

I'm a software engineer based in Washington D.C. interested in building software across backend systems, web development, and machine learning.

Outside of work, I enjoy playing piano, video games, tennis, pickleball, diving into a good book, drawing, photography, and more! You can see what I'm currently doing below.

This past summer I was an intern at Capital One in Chicago where I worked on building a new authorization engine for credit cards. I also have a few projects in the works that (hopefully) will be released soon.
