About

Student, teammate, and perpetual learner.

I split time between Bountiful High, the Davis Catalyst Center, and teams that teach me grit on snow and turf. This page dives into that balance.

Who I Am

The classroom is everywhere.

I spend my days toggling between academics at Bountiful High and immersive sessions at the Davis Catalyst Center where I'm leveling up my web development and cyber security skills. When the bell rings, I swap laptops for skis, mountain bikes, and lacrosse sticks.

My favorite projects blend creativity, clean UI, and just enough challenge to keep me curious. I'm currently focused on mastering HTML/CSS, getting confident with JavaScript, and exploring backend basics with PHP and databases.

Snowbasin Ski Team

The mountain is my classroom for resilience, precision, and reading terrain — skills that translate into my code.

BHS Lacrosse

On-field communication & strategy help me collaborate better in group projects and hackathons.

Gap Year Vision

Plan: graduate at 17, take a gap year to build real-world experience, then head to college with momentum.
