Business Systems Analyst | Developer | Technical Problem Solver | Curious by Default
I’m a Business Systems Analyst I at Orrstown Bank with a background in software engineering, cloud infrastructure, full-stack development, and information technology.
I enjoy working at the intersection of business and technology — understanding how a process works, figuring out where it can be improved, and building or coordinating solutions that make things run better.
At Orrstown Bank, I work within a 3-person team supporting 10+ digital banking applications, helping maintain the systems behind customer-facing digital banking while working with internal teams, vendors, and technical stakeholders. I also develop in-house solutions that automate manual processes and improve internal workflows.
Before moving into banking technology, I completed two internships with Air Products, where I worked across software engineering, AWS cloud infrastructure, enterprise application development, automation, and global IT operations.

- Turning complicated business problems into practical technical solutions
- Understanding how systems, applications, and processes connect
- Automating repetitive work and improving inefficient workflows
- Building software that is scalable, maintainable, and actually useful
- Learning new technologies deeply instead of memorizing surface-level answers
- Bridging the gap between technical teams and business stakeholders
- Taking ownership and figuring things out when the answer isn't obvious
- Co-manage a portfolio of 10+ digital banking applications within a 3-person team
- Support system reliability, issue resolution, vendor coordination, and customer-facing digital banking operations
- Work with internal stakeholders to understand business needs and technical requirements
- Analyze workflows and identify opportunities for process improvement
- Develop in-house technical solutions that automate manual processes and improve internal operations

My current role has given me the opportunity to combine two things I really enjoy: understanding how a business works and using technology to make it work better.

Software Engineering Intern | Full-Stack & Cloud Development
Contributed to an enterprise application platform supporting 23,000 users across 50+ countries.
- Built scalable AWS infrastructure using Terraform
- Developed .NET / C# AWS Lambda functions
- Integrated DynamoDB and CloudFront for application distribution and access control
- Worked with 10+ international teams
- Contributed to secure, low-latency global application delivery
- Worked within enterprise architecture, security, deployment, and CI/CD requirements
This experience taught me that building software at enterprise scale means thinking far beyond whether the code simply works.
Full-Stack Development | Hack Day Project
Helped deliver a full-stack translation management solution in an 8-hour Hack Day, collaborating across 6 teams and supporting a platform designed for 1,500+ users.
- Developed a React Native interface using JavaScript
- Worked across technical and business requirements
- Designed around usability, scalability, and maintainability
- Collaborated rapidly across multiple teams to move from concept to working solution
This project reinforced how much I enjoy solving problems where technology, users, and business needs all intersect.
Academic Capstone | Full-Stack Development
Built a full-stack productivity application designed around habit tracking, scheduling, analytics, and AI-assisted productivity.
- Developed with React, FastAPI, and PostgreSQL
- Implemented authentication, task management, statistics, and habit tracking
- Integrated AI assistance using the Gemini API
- Implemented natural-language input and schedule analysis
- Worked with Docker and cloud deployment
- Developed within an Agile team environment
Buddi pushed me to think beyond “does this work?” and toward “does this actually solve the user's problem?”
Full-Stack Developer | Nonprofit Client Project
Built a role-based platform supporting students, alumni, and administrators.
- Developed 3 user dashboards using React, TypeScript, Flask, and PostgreSQL
- Built REST API integrations and centralized resource functionality
- Integrated an OpenAI-powered chatbot and intelligent search
- Worked directly with stakeholders to understand requirements and translate them into technical features
- Designed the system around different user roles and business needs
This project was one of my earliest experiences seeing how valuable it is to have someone who can understand both the technical implementation and the people using it.
May 2024 – May 2026
- Led a technology organization with 190+ members
- Directed a 5-person executive board
- Increased active participation by 400%
- Organized technical workshops, professional development opportunities, and student events
- Collaborated with students, faculty, organizations, and industry professionals
- Helped students navigate internships, careers, interviews, and technical growth
Leadership taught me that some of the most important technical skills have nothing to do with syntax — communication, ownership, adaptability, and understanding people matter just as much.
I’m continuing to grow at the intersection of:
Business Analysis + Financial Technology + Software Engineering + Automation + Cloud
I’m especially interested in understanding how large organizations use technology, improving the systems behind those organizations, and building solutions that make complicated processes simpler.
I still love writing code.
I just also really enjoy figuring out what should be built, why it should be built, and how technology can solve the underlying business problem.

My favorite t-shirt has a Java HelloWorld program on it. It reminds me that even the smallest programs can be the start of something big.
