HEY, I'M RYAN.

Computer engineering student at UC Irvine

I've been building things for days.

A FEW HIGHLIGHTS:

  • B.S. Computer Engineering @ UC Irvine - 3.94 GPA
  • Studied abroad at Universidad Carlos III de Madrid
  • Currently building an online marketplace for farm to table living
  • Researched efficient GEMM algorithms at HPC Forge
  • Spearheaded a $50k security architecture redesign at CisoShare
  • Operations manager for UCI Baja Racing
  • Built a wearable GPS tracker with real-time Firebase streaming
  • Designed & verified a single-cycle RISC-V processor in Verilog

WHAT I'M CURRENTLY FOCUSED ON:

  • Farm to Table — Building a fresh local produce marketplace
  • Preparing for internship roles for summer 2026

WHAT ELSE I'M WORKING ON:

  • UCI Baja Racing
  • Undergraduate Research
  • UCI Study Abroad Center

I love working at the intersection of hardware and software. Always learning, always building.

TL;DR:

I'm a computer engineering student who loves working where hardware meets software.

From designing PCBs and writing Verilog to building mobile apps, I like solving real problems across the full stack.

I've researched at two UCI labs, and worked in numerous student projects. I'm always looking for the next thing to build.

I got into tech through cybersecurity by interning at CisoShare in high school, running security audits and presenting to board members. From there I got hooked on understanding how systems work at every level, which led me to computer engineering at UCI.

Build things that work in the real world. I care about understanding problems deeply before jumping to solutions, whether that's benchmarking GPU kernels for ML models or designing this personal website. The best engineering is thoughtful engineering.

I love the challenge of making something tangible, flashing firmware, watching data stream in real-time, holding a device I designed. I'm driven by curiosity, great teams, and the satisfaction of shipping things that actually matter.

I want to work on systems that push boundaries, whether that's high-performance computing, embedded systems, or the next wave of hardware-software integration. I graduate in 2027 and I'm looking for opportunities where I can keep building and growing.
