About Me
Hi! I'm Dylan, a backend-focused software engineer and recent graduate from the University of Wisconsin–Madison. I enjoy building scalable, production-grade systems and have hands-on experience with Python, Go, and C# across cloud-native services, APIs, and AI-assisted tooling.
I'm passionate about developing smart applications that solve real-world problems—whether that’s through integrating AI models, optimizing backend infrastructure, or experimenting with new technologies in distributed systems and DevOps.
Outside of tech, you'll usually find me working out 🏋, cooking up new recipes 🍳, or hooping 🏀. I'm always learning, building, and looking forward to growing as both an engineer and a teammate.
