About Me

I'm a Software Engineer Intern and Competitive Programmer passionate about solving complex problems through elegant, full-stack solutions.

Since starting my Computer Science degree at UAEH in 2022, I've been deeply involved in the world of algorithms. Not only have I competed as a finalist in multiple ICPC Mexico Grand Prix events, but I also serve as the Lead Instructor for my university's Competitive Programming Club, mentoring over 200 active members.

Beyond competitions, I'm currently working as a Software Engineer Intern, where I focus on optimizing workflows and building scalable architectures. Whether I'm configuring servers, developing mobile apps in Flutter, or creating award-winning VR experiences in Unity, I believe in clean code, thoughtful design, and continuous learning.

Values & Philosophy

  • 💡Clean Code: I believe readable, maintainable code is just as important as working code.
  • 💡Continuous Learning: From Spring Boot to Unity AR, staying curious allows me to adapt to any technological challenge.
  • 💡Community & Mentorship: Teaching advanced data structures to my peers has shown me that sharing knowledge is the best way to grow.
  • 💡Problem Solving: Every challenge, whether algorithmic or infrastructural, is an opportunity to engineer a better solution.

Outside of Code

When I'm not coding, mentoring, or competing in hackathons, you'll most likely find me on the volleyball court. As a varsity student-athlete representing my university at CONDDE, I've learned that teamwork, discipline, and quick decision-making under pressure are just as crucial in sports as they are in software engineering.
