Hi, I’m Evan! Currently, I’m an incoming Software Engineer intern at Computer Aid, Inc. (CAI) and an Undergraduate Research Assistant for Sign Game Labs. I enjoy working on technologies that impact user’s daily lives and tackling new problems in engineering. I’m drawn to collaborative environments and working with others.
When I’m not shipping code, you can usually find me hand-knitting a beanie, exploring local parks, or learning a new skill.
