About
Hey, I'm Evan—a Computer Science student based in New York, NY, currently pursuing my Bachelor of Arts at New York University. I'm deeply passionate about bringing ideals to life at the crossroads of design and engineering. I enjoy transforming creative concepts into beautiful, intuitive front-end designs. I'm always looking to expand my skillset and am working to become a versatile full-stack engineer.
What drives me most is the process of building polished websites with user experience at heart. I thrive on finding unique solutions to complex challenges and am also curious to learn new technologies and adapting to whatever the next project brings. Tech always spoke out to me, because there's always opportunities to grow and create.
Recently, I participated in HopperHacks 2025 at Stony Brook University, where my team took first place in a competition track. That experience honed my ability to collaborate and innovate with others under time constraints. Currently, I'm a Software Engineer Intern at Union Pacific. I'm working on transforming a new mockup of an existing application into a full-stack application using Angular and TypeScript. This has been an invaluable opportunity to learn usability, scalability, and performance come together in large-enterprise application development.
Outside of the coding world, I'm a huge rollercoaster enthusiast—I've visited Universal Studios Orlando, and Walt Disney World is next on my list. I'm also an avid gamer, talk to me about your favorite first-person shooter games. I peaked Immortal 2 in Valorant and Distinguished Master Guardian in CS:GO when I was in 5th grade.
If any of what I said resonates with you, I'd love to connect!
