## Work Experience
### Senior Software Engineer @ Eventide Communications
Jan 2026 – Present | Brooklyn, New York, United States
Architect and Maintain software applications for:
- High-volume audio and video pipelines
- Critical communication between distributed systems, both on-premise and in the cloud
- 3rd party data integrations
- Archival to network-attached storage, as well as physical media

### Software Engineer @ Eventide Communications
Jan 2025 – Jan 2026 | Brooklyn, New York, United States
Build and maintain C++ audio frameworks for mission-critical recording hardware.

### Software Engineer @ Eventide
Jan 2018 – Jan 2025 | Little Ferry, New Jersey
I performed audio software and hardware engineering tasks, including but not limited to CAD modelling, PCB design, GUI development, and DSP engineering.

### Studio Monitor @ New York University
Jan 2018 – Jan 2018 | Greater New York City Area
At NYU, I ensured the orderly lending and return of music technology studio equipment. I also studied and experimented with equipment in order to best assist studio users, as well as further my own education.

### Electronic Trumpet Designer @ Boston University
Jan 2016 – Jan 2017 | Greater Boston Area
For about a year, I worked at BU to design and prototype an electronic trumpet that would allow trumpet players to access synthesized tones using their trumpet technique. Using C++, I programmed a Teensy 3.2 microcontroller to interpret audio and valve position inputs, outputting a MIDI stream representative of the musicians intentions. I also designed and manufactured an acoustically insulated chamber for a trumpet mouthpiece.

### Learning Assistant @ Boston University
Jan 2016 – Jan 2016 | Greater Boston Area
While studying at BU, I worked for two semesters as a learning assistant, helping static mechanics students work through difficult problem sets. This position not only gave me a more solid understanding of the subject material, but also showed me how to best empathize and communicate with others.

### Researcher @ Boston University
Jan 2015 – Jan 2015
I collaborated with other members of our mechanical design subteam to design and build 10 small autonomous boats. These boats will be able to communicate with a remote computer to track and pursue a moving undersea object.

### Kindergarten Aide @ Atkinson Elementary School
Jan 2014 – Jan 2014
I worked with children to improve their understanding of simple mathematical operations, as well as develop their reading skills. I also helped kindergarten teachers with any necessary tasks, including taking over for classroom activities and moving around the classroom during group activities to help any struggling students.


## Education
### Master's degree in Music Technology
New York University
Jan 2017 – Jan 2020
