More About Me

I'm a Software Engineer at RCUH (supporting UHERO / University of Hawai'i), where I build secure, production-grade web systems and data dashboards for research and public health programs, including Maui Wildfire health impact initiatives. My work is compliance-driven (privacy, role-based access, audit-friendly workflows) and built to run reliably in real-world operations.

Outside my UH work, I take on select full-stack projects for businesses and teams—building modern web apps, dashboards, portals, and automations end-to-end.
