About Me

I graduated from the University of Massachusetts Boston with a Bachelor’s Degree in Information Technology, concentrating in Systems Administration. Over the years, I have developed a deep passion for technology, innovation, and the ways in which modern systems can transform business operations. I am currently the Chief Technology Officer, “The Architect,” and Co-Founder of NexaCompli LLC, where I lead the technical vision and oversee the development of scalable compliance solutions designed to support organizations of all sizes in managing their regulatory obligations effectively. Looking ahead, I plan to pursue a Master’s Degree in Artificial Intelligence. I am particularly interested in how AI will redefine the technological landscape, accelerate digital transformation, and shape the next generation of intelligent systems. I am committed to staying at the forefront of these advancements and contributing to solutions that drive meaningful impact.

Outside of work and studies, you can often find me hanging around Boston, or playing video games with close friends. I've recently started a YouTube channel, capturing technology and lifestyle and combining them both. Constantly seeking opportunities to grow, learn, and push my boundaries, whether that's mastering new coding languages or tackling exciting projects.

Projects

MagentaFLOW, developed by Magenta Solutions, is a comprehensive Inventory Management System and business analytics platform. At the start of the semester, we were randomly assigned into groups named after colors — we were designated the Magenta Group. Embracing the theme, we named ourselves Magenta Solutions, and the brand stuck.

This project became the focus of my IT Capstone course, where I took on the role of Project Manager and led a talented, driven team. We built the solution using Softr for the front end and Airtable for the back end. By partnering with a real client, we successfully implemented MagentaFLOW in a local flower shop, tailoring it to meet their operational needs.

Our collaboration, dedication, and technical execution culminated in a live presentation to a panel of judges in the 2025 IT Capstone Competition — where MagentaFLOW earned 1st place.
