Work

A quick tour of where I've spent my time—AgTech first, then earlier internships and field roles that still shape how I build.

Freelance

Data migrations

ScopeWell monitoring and chemigation history out of spreadsheets and legacy databases into a modern store, exposed through an API.

Capstone

Senior design project

With five other seniors, I helped ship a web app for a cattle research facility to manage projects and replace a spreadsheet workflow—so they could import historical records into structured storage and analysis. Bridging ranch vocabulary and developer tradeoffs was the best part of the job.

Internship

Crete Carrier

I cut my teeth rewriting legacy apps in a modern stack and shipped an API-based load-bidding flow that replaced a brittle web-scraping approach—fewer moving parts when bids had to land on time.

Field experience

Nebraska Game & Parks

As a Conservation Technician I lived in habitat work—prescribed burns, weed control, food plots, and wildlife surveys—long days that taught me how plans meet weather, equipment, and wildlife that do not read a Gantt chart.

Restored prairie grassland

Field experience

Intern at N-CORPE

N-CORPE retired irrigated cropland to grassland to protect groundwater under interstate compacts. With the range manager I reseeded, fought weeds, and helped shape grazing and reseeding plans—work that still informs how I think about long-horizon stewardship.
