About Me

Hey, I'm Evan!

CS student passionate about AI/ML and building real solutions

Hi, I'm Evan, a CS student at Penn State building high-impact AI software. I currently work as a Forward Deployed Engineer Co-Op at IBM and a Founding Engineer at Fort Gamma, where I build production systems from architecture through deployment.

My passion for computer science began at age 8, configuring plugins on my Minecraft server!

Previously, I built production quote-intake systems at Truvo Insurance and machine learning systems at Tredence. I care deeply about strong engineering fundamentals, test automation, and shipping software that users trust.
