Building Fixify — an end-to-end property-maintenance platform that runs every repair from tenant text to dispatched vendor to paid invoice. Pitched at Plug and Play to 150+ potential investors and industry leaders. Winner of Mission 50 and Stevens pitch competitions for pre-seed funds. Shipping Fixify Core (operations cockpit for property managers) and Fixify Go (tenant intake on mobile) on the same Supabase + Next.js stack.

Mechanical engineering student at Stevens Institute of Technology building software products and practical systems. I ship useful tools, iterate quickly, and solve real problems end to end.
About
Cross-disciplinary engineer, product-first operator.
I'm a mechanical engineering student at Stevens Institute of Technology and a member of Launchpad—Stevens' selective entrepreneurship program. I combine engineering rigor with product-building: from full-stack work at Quanxiom to co-founding Fixify, a property-maintenance platform that I've pitched to 150+ investors at Plug and Play and competed in — and won — two pitch competitions for pre-seed funds.
Before that I spent time in verification & validation at Defibtech (automating test fixtures, C++, SolidWorks, 3D printing) and in quality and process improvement at Microboard. Outside of tech I was captain of varsity lacrosse, US Lacrosse Academic All-American, and involved in multiple honor societies.

What I'm building
Property management, automated.
Fixify runs every repair end-to-end — from tenant text to dispatched vendor to paid invoice — so property managers get their afternoons back.
Fixify
Co-Founder · Oct 2024 – Present
Two products on one stack: Fixify Core, the desktop cockpit for property managers (Next.js + Supabase, with QuickBooks sync, Stripe, DocuSign, and ElevenLabs voice agents), and Fixify Go, an Expo app that lets tenants report repairs via SMS link — no login, no download.
01
AI voice dispatch
Calls vendors in priority order, reads the job, captures a quote, brings it back for one-click approval — full transcript attached.
02
Tenant intake, no download
Text link, snap a photo, pick a time. SMS updates flow automatically from first ring to final fix.
03
Vendor ranking
Tracks response time, quote accuracy, and completion rate. The best performers win more work, automatically.
04
QuickBooks sync
Invoices reconcile automatically with line items intact — no manual re-entry, no month-end cleanup.
Experience
Where I've worked.
Building an innovative business management platform — contributing full-stack across front-end and back-end features and integrating AI/ML models into the product to streamline repetitive work.
- Automated a testing device for ARM RX chest compression performance validation: software-driven stepper motor control, C++ OLED display, SolidWorks design and 3D-printed prototypes.
- Executed test protocols after software and hardware updates to verify AED user interfaces and hardware changes.
Reviewed training materials, implemented a new quality system, and collaborated on process improvements and documentation. Researched and qualified external providers against certifications and standards.

Train smart. Track everything.
Gainzzz
Gainzzz started as a simple fitness tracking tool I built for myself, driven by a nerdy obsession with optimization and a desire to focus on real progress. It grew beyond a personal project and launched publicly so others could train with the same clean, results-driven system.
- Structured training plans and progression tracking
- Body-weight + strength metrics in one view
- Built, shipped, and iterated end to end solo

AI-powered repair assistance.
FixIt
AI-powered repair assistance so users can fix broken items themselves or connect with pros. FixIt became the proving ground that led to Fixify — where the same intake experience now powers full property-management workflows.
- Guided AI diagnosis from a single photo
- One-tap connect to local professionals
- Foundation that evolved into Fixify
