✦ Hi, I'm Ryan. I'm a senior at Rutgers University graduating in January 2025 with a double major in Computer Science and Cognitive Science. Above all else, I like to make cool ideas real.

✦ I have full stack development and project management experience in the fields of healthcare and logistics automation. I helped create the architecture for drone delivery and autonomous voice chat integration at Aersys, a startup making a modular robotic warehouse and stockroom system. I also collaborated on a machine learning pipeline that helps determine which doctors are most likely to be seen by patients with a rare but debilitating kidney disease while at Otsuka Pharmaceutical. In short, I like working on projects that help people (see my resume on the "dev" tab for more info).

✦ In my free time, I've developed a web application for mapping the pavement quality and safety of our roads and a board generator and analyzer for my favorite board game, Settlers of Catan (check out both on the "dev" page). I also created a prototype for the world's first web browser that uses SMS, not WiFi or cellular service, to access the internet. I am currently working on developing a scalable version that could provide internet access in areas with limited service, such as rural regions or those impacted by natural disasters.

✦ Offline, I love telling stories through music, scavenger hunts (creating and solving), making short films, road tripping while living in a car, bushwhacking, and toasting marshmallows.
